Reprox turns any GitHub repository that uses Releases into a fully compliant APT (deb) or RPM repository. Package downloads redirect straight to GitHub's CDN, moving the trust model from the maintainer of an APT/RPM repository to the maintainer of the GitHub repository.\n\nI made this for my own personal use, so I didn't have to \"Watch\" for new Github Releases and manually download/install updates. I recognize that I am man-in-the-middling the traditional trust model for package repositories. Be careful to add only trusted, official upstream Github repositories. If you're worried about me man-in-the-middleing you, skip ahead to [the Self-Hosting section](#self-hosting).\n\nSupports all Releases since [June 2025](https://github.blog/changelog/2025-06-03-releases-now-expose-digests-for-release-assets/).\n\n## Usage\n\n### APT (Modern)\n\nDebian 13+/Ubuntu 24.04+ `.sources` Format\n\n```bash\n# Replace {owner}, {repo}, and {package} with the Github repository and package name\n\n# Optional: verify the key fingerprint before importing\ncurl -fsSL https://reprox.dev/{owner}/{repo}/public.key | gpg --show-keys\n# Verify the instance's fingerprint by browsing to it in your web browser\n\n# Import the signing key\ncurl -fsSL https://reprox.dev/{owner}/{repo}/public.key | \\\n  sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/{repo}.gpg\n\n# Add the repository\nsudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/{repo}.sources \u003c\u003c EOF\nTypes: deb\nURIs: https://reprox.dev/{owner}/{repo}\nSuites: stable\nComponents: main\nSigned-By: /etc/apt/keyrings/{repo}.gpg\nEOF\n# To include Releases marked as Pre-Release, change the URL to\n# https://reprox.dev/{owner}/{repo}/prerelease\n\n# Install\nsudo apt update \u0026\u0026 sudo apt install {package}\n```\n\n### APT (Legacy)\n\n`.list` Format\n\n```bash\n# Replace {owner}, {repo}, and {package} with the Github repository and package name\n\n# Optional: verify the key fingerprint before importing\ncurl -fsSL https://reprox.dev/{owner}/{repo}/public.key | gpg --show-keys\n# Verify the instance's fingerprint by browsing to it in your web browser\n\n# Import the signing key\ncurl -fsSL https://reprox.dev/{owner}/{repo}/public.key | \\\n  sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/{repo}.gpg\n\necho \"deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/{repo}.gpg] https://reprox.dev/{owner}/{repo} stable main\" | \\\n  sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/{repo}.list\n# To include Releases marked as Pre-Release, change the URL to\n# https://reprox.dev/{owner}/{repo}/prerelease\n\n# Install\nsudo apt update \u0026\u0026 sudo apt install {package}\n```\n\n### RPM (Fedora/RHEL/CentOS)\n\n```bash\n# Replace {owner}, {repo}, and {package} with the Github repository and package name\n# \nsudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/{repo}.repo \u003c\u003c EOF\n[{repo}]\nname={repo} from GitHub via Reprox\nbaseurl=https://reprox.dev/{owner}/{repo}\nenabled=1\ngpgcheck=0\nrepo_gpgcheck=1\ngpgkey=https://reprox.dev/{owner}/{repo}/public.key\nEOF\n# To include Releases marked as Pre-Release, change the URL to\n# https://reprox.dev/{owner}/{repo}/prerelease\n\nsudo dnf install {package}\n# Optional: verify the key fingerprint on first update/install\n# Verify the instance's fingerprint by browsing to it in your web browser\n```\n\u003e [!NOTE]\n\u003e `gpgcheck=0` disables individual package signature verification because Reprox serves packages from GitHub without re-signing.
