But then you have to (so far) manually remove the old folder! This is what i got:

It does not install java 8 and it does not ask you for the version you want to install (but the version is kept in a variable to easily change that). I have modified the scripts to fulfill my needs. It then automatically downloads the newest version for you, extracts it and creates a desktop entry. The given script in the link installs Oracle Java 7 for you and gives you the choice between Community and Ultimate Edition. I also found a shell script that does this for you, here.

sktop (this is for community edition version 14.1.2, you have to change the paths in Exec= and Icon= lines if the path is different for you): If you don't know how to do that, you can restart your PC. Now (in a lot) Ubuntu versions you can start the application after the GUI is restarted.

Move the sktop from your home directory to /usr/share/applications: sudo mv ~/sktop /usr/share/applications/.

Create a Desktop Entry File called sktop (see example file below) and store it anywhere you want (let's assume in your home directory).Extract intellij to /opt-folder: sudo tar -xvf -C /opt/ (the -C option extracts the tar to the folder /opt/).For an extended script, that covers more JetBrains IDEs, as well as help for font rendering issues, please see this link provided by brendan.įurthermore, a manual Desktop Entry creation is optional, as newer versions of IntelliJ offer to create it on first startup. Note: This answer covers the installation of IntelliJ IDEA.
