Installation

Adding the Repository

codename=$(lsb_release --codename --short)
curl -sS https://tommie.github.io/innernet-debian/repository.asc | sudo tee /etc/apt/keyrings/github-tommie-innernet.asc >/dev/null
cat >/etc/apt/sources.list.d/innernet.list <<EOF

This is installed on all peers.

$ sudo apt install innernet

Compatibility

We build for

  • Ubuntu 24.04 (noble)
  • Ubuntu 22.04 (jammy)
  • Ubuntu 20.04 (focal)

on

  • amd64, x86_64
  • armhf, armv7 (cross-build)
  • arm64, aarch64 (cross-build)

Additionally:

  • Debian 13 (trixie) is served by noble. There is a symlink in place to allow trixie, which will cause APT to warn that the codenames missmatch. In the end, either name works.
  • Debian 12 (bookworm) is served by jammy. There is a symlink in place to allow bookworm, which will cause APT to warn that the codenames missmatch. In the end, either name works.
  • Debian 11 (bullseye) is served by focal. There is a symlink in place to allow bullseye, which will cause APT to warn that the codenames missmatch. In the end, either name works.

The authoritative source of supported distributions and architectures is conf/distributions.

Maintenance

Adding a Distribution

When Ubuntu/Debian releases a new version, we need to

  1. Add the new distribution in debian/conf/distributions.
  2. Add the version and codename to the matrix in build-deb in .github/workflows/main.yml.
