I would like to use mysqlbackup to do incremental backups. However I can't figure out how to install it.
I have mysql-server installed. The documentation (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-enterprise-backup/3.7/en/mysqlbackup.incremental.html) seems to suggest it should already be installed but it's not. I'm running mysql on ubuntu.

It's part of mysql-commercial-backup-9.1.0-1.1.el9.x86_64.rpm package, so you'll have to install this package, reboot mysqld and then use mysqlbackup

If you use linux.First u can download the install soft from web.
e.g. meb_xxxx.rpm.
Then run the command: rpm -ivh meb_xxxx.rpm
The MEB will install in the path /opt/mysql/meb_xxxx default.
Then u can use the mysqlbackup commande in the ./bin/ directory.

Mysqlbackup is part of the MySQL Enterprise Backup:
When using the MySQL Enterprise Backup product, you primarily work with the mysqlbackup command.
Enterprise Backup, on the otherhand, is part of the MySQL Enterprise Edition which is available from Oracle store.

You're in luck, someone recently wrote a comprehensive writeup of how to install automysqlbackup on Ubuntu.

They use a different approach to installing it - not using apt-get, but downloading the source and running the install shell script. I hope this works for you, good luck!
