For Linux, install it through yum install libjpeg or apt install libjpeg-progs respectively. Once installed it should be in /usr/bin/jpegtran

For manual installation on Linux of the latest Version, download the files here, afterwards unpack it to a directory, for example /opt/celum/conversiontools/jpegtran, go to the directory that contains the uncompressed code, execute ./configure and then, make install.

Now you should find the executable as jpegtran in the directory.
