Why can't I run the litecoin-qt file in the bin directory of the archive downloaded from litecoin.org? I copied it into the home directory and double-clicked, and also tried to to run it from terminal. I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and the downloaded archive is Litecoin Core 0.15.1. The error message I get is "There is no application installed for 'shared library' files. Do you want to search for an application to open this file?" Clicking Yes produces nothing.

The following worked for me.
First, open a terminal (press Windows key -> gnome-terminal). Then run the following commands:
# Assuming you downloaded the .tar.gz file from litecoin.org
# to ~/Downloads...
cd ~/Downloads
tar -zxf litecoin.*.tar.gz
cd litecoin-0.15.1

Thank you! It worked perfectly. I'm all synced. It appears right now I can only open the wallet from Terminal, which is fine, but do you know a way to create a desktop icon?
