Download the tar archive and extract into the installation folder. You will find the “Ringotel.desktop” file in the extracted folder. Then, please do the following:

  1. Open the “Ringotel.desktop” file

  2. Edit the following lines:

    -Path

    -Exec

    -Icon

Where is the location of the extracted application folder.

Example:

Path=/home/max/ringotel

Exec=/home/max/ringotel/run %u

Icon=/home/max/ringotel/icon

3. Move “Ringotel.desktop” file to /home//.local/share/applications

After this, a shortcut in the “Show Applications” section should appear.
