+5 fooled Slashdot

Mod parent down. This is absolute rubbish, how did it get to +5 informative? I assume it's there as a joke so it should only be +5 funny, or possibly now, +5 fooled Slashdot.

Repository

I run a Debian package repository, with packages for Debian at http://www.asheesh.org/debian/ and packages for Ubuntu at http://www.asheesh.org/ubuntu/.

If you would like to use my repository, here is what you need to add:

For Ubuntu

Edit sources.list and add these lines:

deb http://www.asheesh.org/ubuntu/ hardy main
deb-src http://www.asheesh.org/ubuntu/ hardy main

gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key 0x70096AD1 ; gpg -a --export 0x70096AD1 | sudo apt-key add -

sudo apt-get update

For Debian

Edit sources.list and add these lines:

deb http://www.asheesh.org/debian/ sid main
deb-src http://www.asheesh.org/debian/ sid main

gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key 0x70096AD1 ; gpg -a --export 0x70096AD1 | sudo apt-key add -

sudo apt-get update

And then?

You're free to apt-get install whatever you want from my repositories now. If you would like to compile my packages from source, just do:

apt-src -bi install $package
