I am trying to install perforce on my Ubuntu machine, after I untar the .tgz file, I get two folders lib and bin. Where would be the executable or how do I install it correctly?

The main binary will always be in the bin folder (hence the name bin(ary) :P). The program shouldn't need to be installed. Just double-click on the main binary or run


in the bin folder.

run the p4v file in the bin folder.


Or double click on the file and select run from the dialog.
