Answer 2

See the readme in the installation file. 1st part:

StackExchange Data Dump Browser is a small Qt-based application 
designed to make it easy to view the contents of StackExchange data dumps 
when you have no active Internet connection.

Building the application (the easy way):

1. Open a terminal and navigate to the root directory of the repository.
2. Type `./compile_everything`
3. Run `convert/convert` to run the conversion wizard. 
When prompted for the location of the data dump files, enter 'data/posts.xml'.

Here you can find the package.
