My Debian/Ubuntu packages

One of the many strong points about the Debian distribution (and its derivatives, such as Ubuntu) is that anybody can muster up their own packages. Some people actually go one step further, and offer their packages to anybody who wants to benefit from their effort. Following this custom, here is my collection.

Notice to all previous users: Because I carelessly waited until the last minute before renewing my OpenPGP key, you may encounter an "invalid signature" error the next time you run apt update. Manually downloading and installing the updated fbriere-archive-keyring package will fix this issue. My apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Then, for each component listed above that you want, visit its page and download the .sources file corresponding to your current Debian or Ubuntu release. You should place these files in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory.

Once everything is in place, simply run apt update. You can now install the packages you want using your favorite tool (such as aptitude or Ubuntu Software).
