Blobfolio Apt Repository

This is a small package repository maintained by Blobfolio, LLC, containing various odds and ends that we find useful. No more, no less. Haha.

Add the Apt Source.

This repository works just like any other third-party repository. To add it to your system, simply follow the instructions below for your distribution.

Debian 12.0 Bookworm

# Architecture: amd64
wget -qO- https://apt.blobfolio.com/assets/bookworm_amd64.sources | \
    sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/apt.blobfolio.com.sources >/dev/null

Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy Jellyfish

# Architecture: amd64
wget -qO- https://apt.blobfolio.com/assets/jammy_amd64.sources | \
    sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/apt.blobfolio.com.sources >/dev/null

Ubuntu 23.10 Mantic Minotaur

# Architecture: amd64
wget -qO- https://apt.blobfolio.com/assets/mantic_amd64.sources | \
    sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/apt.blobfolio.com.sources >/dev/null

The Finish Line!

As with any change to your apt sources, you'll need to run a quick update to refresh it:

sudo apt-get update

After that, you're free to install everything and anything you want!

sudo apt-get install […]

About Package Verification.

The integrity of packages in this repository can be verified at either the repository level — as apt does automatically — or package-by-package, using dpkg-sig.

The package-by-package route comes with two prerequisites:

# Add the public key to *your* personal GPG keyring.
wget -qO- https://apt.blobfolio.com/assets/public.asc | gpg --import

# Install dpkg-sig, if you don't already have it:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install dpkg-sig

After that, you can manually verify a downloaded package by running:

dpkg-sig -c /path/to/some-file.deb
