Ubuntu/Debian Installation

Posted Wed, 07/29/2009 - 18:59 by cjd

To ease installation and upgrades we provide a package repository for use with Ubuntu and other Debian-based linux distributions. To use this you need to add our repository to your sources.list file. The easiest way to do this is to through the GUI-based repository management which is normally accomplished via the "Software Sources" panel. This panel can be accessed via two menus:

  • Software Sources: System > Administration > Software Sources.
  • Synaptic: System > Administration > Synaptic >> Settings >> Repositories.
  • You will have to enter your password to gain access to the page.

Once there go to the tab labelled "Third-Party Software"

Apt Sources

From there click 'Add' and type the following line into the text area

deb http://www.lyricue.org/debian/ ./

Add source dialog

If you do not wish to add the entry via the GUI you can edit /etc/apt/sources.list and add the line manually to that file.

 

Once you have added the repository you can update your package information and install the 'lyricue' package
