5. Add the generalbytes repository to APT
For installation and updates, the repository must be specifically added to the Ubuntu system.
Create the repository file:
| Code Block |
|---|
sudo touch /etc/apt/sources.list.d/generalbytes-repo.list |
Edit the new file using nano:
| Code Block |
|---|
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/generalbytes-repo.list |
...
Add the following line to the file:
| Code Block |
|---|
deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/generalbytes-repo.public] https://packages.generalbytes.com/LICENSE ./stable main |
Replace “LICENSE” with your actual GENERAL BYTES approved license key.
Example:
...
Save and exit the nano editor (Press Ctrl+X, and answer “Y” when asked to save the file).
If you prefer to do it in a single line, use this script:
| Code Block |
|---|
read -p"Enter your license number and press ENTER:" LL && [ "$LL" == "" ] && echo "bad lincence number try again" || sudo sh -c "echo 'deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/generalbytes-repo.public] https://packages.generalbytes.com/$LL ./stable main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/generalbytes-repo.list" |
6. Update the Ubuntu system repository.
| Code Block |
|---|
sudo apt update |
...
Troubleshooting
The license issued by GENERAL BYTES may be revoked without warning.
