How to install mysqlbackup?

Question

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.

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.
