News

2018-12-22: A new mirror is available (Europe) at deb2.utopia-repository.org, serving all suites except nightlies. The main server (USA) remains at deb.utopia-repository.org
2018-08-18: The Utopia Repository moves to a new address: deb.utopia-repository.org
Nightly builds will now be served from: ni.deb.utopia-repository.org

The following suites exist in The Utopia Repository, but availability varies between OS versions. Please check which sections suit your setup before adding things to sources.list!

Legend
Active maintenance
Bug fixes only
EOL or unsupported
Coming soon/temp. unavailable
Suite not available

Suite	sid (unstable)	buster (testing)	stretch (stable)	bionic (18.04)
main: Free software addons for Debian and Ubuntu. For stable releases, unofficial backports are also included. This section also includes Utopia-branded packages containing my desktop settings and custom package sets (meta-packages).	sid/main		stretch/main	bionic/main
imports: Extra packages that are either mirrored from an external source or not supported well enough (by me) to put in main. May include non-free content.	sid/imports†		stretch/imports†	bionic/imports†
forks: Forked / modified packages that intend to replace the versions available in Debian or Ubuntu. Changes for each package vary - see their individual changelogs for more info.	sid/forks		stretch/forks	bionic/forks
nightlies: Automatic nightly builds for certain packages. Nightlies repositories are signed using a different PGP key: 4A4A7B0E6EFB2FD90FD4F58C4A8C96B8EEBB01E6	sid-nightlies		stretch-nightlies	N/A
experimental: Bleeding edge & testing packages that may upgrade system libraries and thus cause package conflicts. Use with caution!	experimental	N/A

† Limited support for imports suites

Instructions

This repository works like any other APT repository or Ubuntu PPA, and is signed using a PGP key. Both HTTP and verified HTTPS are available.

1) Add the repository to sources.list

I am using and would like the following dists:

Note: Enable JavaScript for a friendly sources.list generator!deb http://deb.utopia-repository.org/ your-dist component1 component2 ... deb-src http://deb.utopia-repository.org/ your-dist component1 component2 ...

2) Install the repository's PGP signing key

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-key D5D568B2D34AB32A337944D22EC3F60DE71C0B9D

3) Install the utopia-keyring package (optional)

To keep the signing keys in sync via apt in case of updates, you can install the utopia-keyring package from the main section of most release repositories (e.g. sid/main).

4) Enjoy?!

After adding the repositories of your choice, simply run apt-get update to update your repository cache. Then, you will be able to install packages whichever way you like. (apt-get, aptitude, synaptic, etc.)

About

Why did I make this?

Simplicity. Instead of adding 5 repositories for the things I commonly use, I only need to add 1.
Convenience. This repository hosts a few meta-packages (utopia-* in main) to make it easier to pull in a working system. (forget selecting 30 individual packages!)
The learning experience. This is pretty self-explanatory. :)
