Install Firebird 2.5.9 on Ubuntu 18.04

i'm trying to install firebird 2.5.8 in ubuntu 18.04 with no luck manual says in number 6 

SuperServer only installs a /etc/rc.d/init.d/firebird server start script. 

Classic server installs a /etc/xinetd.d/firebird start script or, for older inetd systems, adds an entry to the /etc/inetd file

but it is not happening after I run install.sh, it only create opt/firebird files, also not starting service after install.

https://www.firebirdsql.org/file/documentation/release_notes/html/install210.html#rnfbtwo-install-psx

also in https://firebirdsql.org/manual/ubusetup.html it says: apt-get install firebird2.5-superclassic

but it prints on terminal: 

E: Impossível encontrar o pacote firebird2.5-superclassic 
E: Couldn't find any package by glob 'firebird2.5-superclassic' 
E: Não foi possível encontrar o pacote através da expressão regular 'firebird2.5-superclassic'

Go to https://firebirdsql.org/en/firebird-2-5-8/, and download FirebirdSS-2.5.8.27089-0.amd64.tar.gz and extract/

In the terminal enter

cd FirebirdSS-2.5.8.27089-0.amd64
./install.sh
service –status-all

You need to verify if Firebird exists in the list of services.

In the terminal enter

chmod 777 /localpath/YOURDB.FDB

I used on Ubuntu Server LTS 18.04.02
