In September 2021 the new
repository went online. It is
enabled in all releases after
September 1, 2021. It is signed
with a stronger gpg key than the
original repository and will add
additional security for users
and the project. The new key
will also sign all newly
released iso's.
It contains all types of
packages listed above that
previously existed as well as
all new packages the project
creates. The repository packages
are authenticated by the local
package manager with a signature
file and the public keyring
preventing any changes to a
package.
The new repository was enabled
and the new key installed in all
the SbK 21.1 releases and all
releases going forward. If
something goes wrong and Pamac
or Packman error out because the
key is not found open a terminal
and as root or with sudo
enter:
sbksign
This will add the key again and
resign the repository. Some of
the first 21.1 releases didnot
have this script, you can
download it here.
Adding the repository to older
SbK spins and non SbK installs.
The repository can be added to
Manjaro/ArchLinux by adding the
following to your
/etc/pacman.conf
[sbk-repo]
SigLevel = PackageRequired
Server =
http://repo.spinsbykilz.com/2/files/repository/stable/x86_64/
Since
the repository is signed you
will need to download and add the keyfile
before installing packages.
After downloading the key open a
terminal and enter the
following:
sudo pacman-key --add
/path/to/downloaded/keyfile
then
sudo pacman-key
--lsign-key 620BB134B4239576
