[swift-users] Debian Stretch Installation

[Bernhard Reiter]

Hi friends of Swift,

thanks for making a Debian package for Swift 4!

For the record, here are the commands that I've used
to install it for Debian Stretch:

#as root
pushd /etc/apt/

mkdir -p pubkeys
curl -Ss https://swift.im/keys/packages.key | gpg --dearmor >pubkeys/swift-im.gpg

cat <<-EOF >sources.list.d/swift.list
	deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/pubkeys/swift-im.gpg] https://swift.im/packages/debian/stretch release main
	deb-src [signed-by=/etc/apt/pubkeys/swift-im.gpg] https://swift.im/packages/debian/stretch release main
EOF

cat <<-EOF >preferences.d/swift.pref
	Package: *
	Pin: origin swift.im
	Pin-Priority: 100
EOF

apt-get update
apt-get install swift-im
# 

Maybe that is useful for somebody as inspiration.
(As always when copying commands, make sure you fully understand what they do.)
