There's no Arduino IDE among my applications after the previous installation process.
Please notice I can install the previous Arduino version (1.8.1) without any problems.

"I had the same problem while installing Arduini IDE 1.8.2 on a Ubuntu machine. The resource name in the install.sh file is wrong. When I looked in the Arduino-1.8.2/lib there is a file named arduino-arduinoide.xml file. So I changed the "RESOURCE_NAME=cc.arduino.arduinoide" to "RESOURCE_NAME=arduino-arduinoide" and then run ./install.sh and that worked fine for me.
