I don't think so.
It may be added to the github wiki...

Install git and run the following commands in the terminal:

mkdir ~/src
cd ~/src
git clone address@hidden:wbsoft/python-ly.git
git clone address@hidden:wbsoft/frescobaldi.git
cp frescobaldi/frescobaldi.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/
sed -ir 's|Exec=.*$|Exec=sh -c "PYTHONPATH=~/src/python-ly python 
~/src/frescobaldi/frescobaldi"|' 
~/.local/share/applications/frescobaldi.desktop

When you want to upgrade you enter the two sources and make a pull:

cd ~/src/python-ly
git pull

cd ~/src/frescobaldi
git pull
