Configure Linux repository & install sky

from command line

GUI installation

Descriptions below and our tests apply to generic default out-of-box installation setup.
Your experience may vary depending on specific installation OS configuration


Arch Linux

sky package configuration (PKGBUILD) is available from Arch Linux User Repository at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sky/

In case of installation issues, please refer to Arch Linux Wiki on using AUR packages first (Arch User Repository)

  • If you prefer plain pacman way:
    1. Download latest sky tarball 
      $ wget https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/snapshot/sky.tar.gz
    2. Extract tarball with 
      $ tar zxf sky.tar.gz
    3. Run 
      $ makepkg -sri sky
      in the directory where files were saved
  • If you are yaourt user, simply install the package with: 
    $ yaourt -S sky

Debian, Ubuntu & other Debian-based distributions

If sky ver. 2.0.x was installed earlier using TEL.RED repository, to keep your system clean, consider running following command to wipe out deprecated repository entries: 

$ sudo sed -i '/https\?:\/\/.*\btel.red\b/d' /etc/apt/sources.list
  1. Ensure APT works with HTTPS and up-to-date CA certificates are installed: 
    $ sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates
  2. Add appropriate TEL.RED repository to APT sources list:
