    • How to Add a Repository to an Ubuntu Instance

    edited Nov 9, 2022 9:04AM in Linux

    To add a repository to a linux cloud instance running Ubuntu, add the details for the repository you wish to add to /etc/apt/sources.list or to the /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory. See this example from /etc/apt/sources.list:

    deb http://ch.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ saucy main restricted

    To update the local package index so it includes the new repository, run the following command:

    (ubuntu) $ sudo apt update

    You can now run apt commands to install or update packages from the repository.
