Line 9: Line 7:
The '''devel''' subdirectory means that it is the main development branch of bitlbee. The '''kermic''' subrirectory means that it is intended for the Karmic Koala release of Ubuntu and the '''i386''' subdirectory means that it is intended for an i386 (32 bit) version of the operating system. Since these are binary packages they may not be usable for you if you're using a less common platform. Right now, 32-/64-bit Intel and ARM platforms are supported.

An up to date list of available distros and architectures is available in the repo readme at:

http://code.bitlbee.org/debian/README.html

The most common way of adding the !BitlBee repository, is by adding it to your ''sources.list'' file, located at ''/etc/apt/sources.list''. Alternatively you may create a new file ''/etc/apt/sources.list.d/bitlbee.list''.

The line you need to add might look something like this for a 32-bits system:

 {{{
deb http://code.bitlbee.org/debian/master/jessie/i386/ ./
}}}

And for a 64-bit version:

 {{{
deb http://code.bitlbee.org/debian/master/jessie/amd64/ ./
}}}

Or if you're using an ARM-based machine:

 {{{
deb http://code.bitlbee.org/debian/master/jessie/armhf/ ./
}}}

The '''master''' subdirectory means that it is the main development branch of bitlbee. The '''jessie''' subdirectory means that it is intended for the Jessie (8.0) release of Debian and the '''i386''' subdirectory means that it is intended for an i386 (32 bit) version of the operating system. You can check if you need 32 or 64-bits using the ''uname -m'' command.

After adding the repository and the GPG key (optional, see below) do {{{sudo apt-get update}}} and then install with {{{sudo apt-get install bitlbee}}} (''aptitude'' may be used instead of ''apt-get'').

For the GPG key, copy-paste the following into your terminal

 {{{
wget -O- https://code.bitlbee.org/debian/release.key | sudo apt-key add -
}}}
