Every post on internet to install DDE on Ubuntu is same as this:
https://linoxide.com/ubuntu-how-to/install-deepin-desktop-environment-derivatives-ubuntu/
I have tried even the PPA but not working: leaeasy/dde
Please explain if there is some other way to do it.
If there is no otherway then how can I install DDE from source, which is here:

Admin almost 7 yearsThere was a time when Deepin was based on Ubuntu and installing its DE in other variants was somehow easy. Now is based on Debian and the PPA is defunct. Better not try that.

Eliah Kagan over 6 years@KashyapKansara You didn't say how you tried to use it or what happens when you do, though. If you're still looking for a solution to this, and you edit your question to include that information, then that may help.
