Could someone show me how to compile things from github?

[Retro64XYZ]

https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/releases/download/release-3.6.1/darktable-3.6.1.tar.xz

sudo apt install checkinstall

tar -zxvf darktable-3.6.1.tar.gz

cd darktable-3.6.1

./configure

make

sudo checkinstall


If it fails, you probably need some supporting items. Never do a sudo 
make install on a debian or ubuntu based system without using 
checkinstall instead. You can automatically roll back or upgrade without 
issues if you use checkinstall.
