### Adding extended LTS repositories to APT
#### Installing the freexian archive GPG key
The extended LTS repositories are signed with the following GPG key:
```
sec rsa4096 2018-05-28 [SC] [expires: 2025-07-18]
AB597C4F6F3380BD4B2BEBC2A07310D369055D5A
uid [ultimate] Extended LTS Repository <sysad...@freexian.com>
```
To enable this key in your APT configuration, you have the following
choices:
* manually install the freexian-archive-keyring package with `wget http://deb.freexian.com/extended-lts/pool/main/f/freexian-archive-keyring/freexian-archive-keyring_2022.06.08_all.deb && sudo dpkg -i freexian-archive-keyring_2022.06.08_all.deb`
* manually fetch the key with `sudo wget http://deb.freexian.com/extended-lts/archive-key.gpg -O /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/freexian-archive-extended-lts.gpg`
You might want to double check that the key fingerprint outputted by
`apt-key finger` matches the one shown above.
#### sources.list entries for APT
##### For Debian 8 jessie
Here's what you should put in `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/extended-lts.list`:
```
deb http://deb.freexian.com/extended-lts jessie-lts main contrib non-free
```
Note that this repository only contains the security updates, not all
packages from Debian 8. If you want all packages from Debian 8, you
should keep another repository pointing to a Debian 8 mirror.
We do provide a repository combining all Debian 8 packages and our security
updates, but please use it only for small setups:
```
deb http://deb.freexian.com/extended-lts jessie main contrib non-free
```
### Be nice, use local mirrors/caches
There are currently no mirrors of this service and it runs on a single
dedicated server. If you have many machines to keep secure, please
make a local mirror (or use some cache) and point your machines to your
local mirror (or cache) instead of pointing them to the
repositories provided by Freexian.
