Is my installation method out of date

This isn’t working for me on Ubuntu Server 24.04.1:

sudo tar -C /usr/local/bin -xzf grin-v5.3.3_rebuild-linux-x86_64.tar.gz --strip-components=1

You could just extract and then use mv.
What kind or error did you get?
Correct me if I am wrong, but the command puts the path given by -C as directory to extract to, and the --strip-components=1 is to then shorten the path by dropping the left most dir on that path. Is that path even existing?

I usually just extract then run ‘install grin /usr/local/bin’ and it works just fine.
