Package Repositories

{pve} uses http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Packaging_Tool[APT] as its
package management tool like any other Debian-based system.

Repositories in {pve}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Repositories are a collection of software packages, they can be used to install
new software, but are also important to get new updates.

NOTE: You need valid Debian and Proxmox repositories to get the latest
security updates, bug fixes and new features.

APT Repositories are defined in the file `/etc/apt/sources.list` and in `.list`
files placed in `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/`.

Repository Management
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

[thumbnail="screenshot/gui-node-repositories.png"]

Since Proxmox VE 7.0 you can check the repository state in the web interface.
The node summary panel shows a high level status overview, while the separate
'Repository' panel shows in-depth status and list of all configured
repositories.

Basic repository management, for example, activating or deactivating a
repository, is also supported.

Sources.list
^^^^^^^^^^^^

In a `sources.list` file, each line defines a package repository. The preferred
source must come first.  Empty lines are ignored. A `#` character anywhere on a
line marks the remainder of that line as a comment. The available packages from
a repository are acquired by running `apt-get update`. Updates can be installed
directly using `apt-get`, or via the GUI (Node -> Updates).

.File `/etc/apt/sources.list`

{pve} provides three different package repositories.

[[sysadmin_enterprise_repo]]
{pve} Enterprise Repository
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is the default, stable, and recommended repository, available for all {pve}
subscription users. It contains the most stable packages and is suitable for
production use. The `pve-enterprise` repository is enabled by default:

.File `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-enterprise.list`
----
deb https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/pve bullseye pve-enterprise
----

The `root@pam` user is notified via email about available updates. Click the
'Changelog' button in the GUI to see more details about the selected update.

You need a valid subscription key to access the `pve-enterprise` repository.
Different support levels are available. Further details can be found at
https://www.proxmox.com/en/proxmox-ve/pricing.

NOTE: You can disable this repository by commenting out the above line using a
`#` (at the start of the line). This prevents error messages if you do not have
a subscription key. Please configure the `pve-no-subscription` repository in
that case.

[[sysadmin_no_subscription_repo]]
{pve} No-Subscription Repository
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is the recommended repository for testing and non-production use. Its
packages are not as heavily tested and validated. You don't need a subscription key
to access the `pve-no-subscription` repository.

We recommend to configure this repository in `/etc/apt/sources.list`.

.File `/etc/apt/sources.list`
----
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian bullseye main contrib
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian bullseye-updates main contrib

[[sysadmin_test_repo]]
{pve} Test Repository
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This repository contains the latest packages and is primarily used by developers
to test new features. To configure it, add the following line to

WARNING: The `pvetest` repository should (as the name implies) only be used for
testing new features or bug fixes.

[[repos_secure_apt]]

SecureApt
~~~~~~~~~

The 'Release' files in the repositories are signed with GnuPG. APT is using
these signatures to verify that all packages are from a trusted source.

If you install {pve} from an official ISO image, the key for verification is
already installed.

If you install {pve} on top of Debian, download and install
the key with the following commands:

----
 # wget https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/proxmox-release-bullseye.gpg -O /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/proxmox-release-bullseye.gpg
----

Verify the checksum afterwards with the `sha512sum` CLI tool:

----
# sha512sum /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/proxmox-release-bullseye.gpg
7fb03ec8a1675723d2853b84aa4fdb49a46a3bb72b9951361488bfd19b29aab0a789a4f8c7406e71a69aabbc727c936d3549731c4659ffa1a08f44db8fdcebfa /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/proxmox-release-bullseye.gpg
----

or the `md5sum` CLI tool:

----
# md5sum /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/proxmox-release-bullseye.gpg
bcc35c7173e0845c0d6ad6470b70f50e /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/proxmox-release-bullseye.gpg
