Installing TuxLAVA via Debian packages

TuxLAVA provides Debian packages that have minimal dependencies, and should work on any Debian or Debian-based (Ubuntu, etc) system.

  1. Download the repository signing key and save it to /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/tuxlava.gpg.
# wget -O /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/tuxlava.gpg \
  https://tuxlava.org/packages/signing-key.gpg
  1. Create /etc/apt/sources.list.d/tuxlava.list with the following contents:
deb https://tuxlava.org/packages/ ./
  1. Install tuxlava as you would any other package:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install tuxlava

Upgrading tuxlava will work just like it would for any other package (apt update, apt upgrade).

Install using Debian extrepo

extrepo is a tool that helps configuring external repositories on Debian in a secure manner. As a pre-requisite for installation using this method, extrepo should be installed in your Debian machine.

  1. Install extrepo if it is not installed previously:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install extrepo
  1. Enable the tuxlava repository with extrepo:
sudo extrepo enable tuxlava
  1. Install tuxlava as you would any other package:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install tuxlava

If the URL or the GPG key has changed, once updated in the extrepo-data repository, it can be easily updated with:

sudo extrepo update tuxlava
