Installation on Debian/Ubuntu

Note

If you just want to install the RestAuth server or RestAuthClient via APT, you do not have to seperately install this library, as it will be automatically installed.

The RestAuth project provides APT repositories for all software it maintains. Repositories are available for all distributions that are currently maintained by the Debian project and Canonical respectively except Debian 5.0 (“lenny”) and Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron).

Adding our APT repository

To add the repositories, simply add this line to your /etc/apt/sources.list file:

deb http://apt.fsinf.at <dist> restauth

... where <dist> is any of the supported distributions (currently lucid, maverick, natty, squeeze or wheezy).

Once you added the repository, you have to install the fsinf GPG keyring used for signing the repositories, so you won’t get any warnings when updating. You can either install the fsinf-keyring package using:

apt-get update
apt-get install fsinf-keyring
apt-get update

or download and add the key directly using:

wget -O - http://packages.spectrum.im/keys/apt-repository@fsinf.at | apt-key add -

Install RestAuthCommon

Once you have added the repositories, installing RestAuthCommon is as simple as

apt-get install restauth-common
