Recent packages for bluefish are available from the [https://packages.debian.org/stable/bluefish official Debian packages website] and can be installed by following the instructions given [https://packages.debian.org/stable/bluefish there]. | |||

=== Installing the very latest release on Debian 6.0 (Squeeze/Oldoldstable) === | |||
Recent packages for bluefish are available from the [https://packages.debian.org/source/squeeze-backports-sloppy/bluefish official Debian backports archive] and can be installed by following the instructions given [http://backports.debian.org/Instructions/ here]. The entry would look like this: | |||
deb http://YOURMIRROR.debian.org/debian-backports squeeze-backports-sloppy main | |||
or | |||
deb http://YOURMIRROR.debian.org/debian-backports oldoldstable-backports-sloppy main | |||
And install the package via: | |||
apt-get -t squeeze-backports-sloppy install bluefish | |||
This version is built with the GTK+ 2 libraries. Report any bugs to the Debian bugtracker. | |||
== Installing the very latest on Ubuntu Linux == | |||
You'll find recent packages of '''bluefish''' in [https://launchpad.net/~klaus-vormweg/+archive/bluefish the Bluefish PPA maintained by Klaus Vormweg]. Follow the instructions given there to add this repository. Then '''bluefish''' can be updated to its latest release: | |||
sudo apt-get update | |||
sudo apt-get upgrade | |||
Please note, that the http://debian.wgdd.de repository has become obsolete. See below, how to clean your system. | |||
=== Removing obsolete debian.wgdd.de entries from sources.list === | |||
The http://debian.wgdd.de/ repository no longer provides packages of bluefish. The above steps make the following entries to either ''/etc/apt/sources.list'' or ''/etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.wgdd.de_*.list'' or any other file in ''/etc/apt/sources.list.d/'' obsolete. You can safely remove any references to the http://debian.wgdd.de repository, that may look like these: | |||
deb http://debian.wgdd.de/debian wheezy main contrib non-free | |||
deb-src http://debian.wgdd.de/debian wheezy main contrib non-free | |||
deb http://debian.wgdd.de/debian stable main contrib non-free | deb http://debian.wgdd.de/debian stable main contrib non-free | ||
deb-src http://debian.wgdd.de/debian stable main contrib non-free | |||
deb http://debian.wgdd.de/debian squeeze main contrib non-free | |||
deb-src http://debian.wgdd.de/debian squeeze main contrib non-free | |||
deb http://debian.wgdd.de/debian oldstable main contrib non-free | |||
deb-src http://debian.wgdd.de/debian oldstable main contrib non-free | |||
deb http://debian.wgdd.de/ubuntu UBUNTU_VERSION_HERE main restricted universe multiverse | |||
deb-src http://debian.wgdd.de/ubuntu UBUNTU_VERSION_HERE main restricted universe multiverse | |||
and update your system: | |||
sudo apt-get update | |||
sudo apt-get upgrade | |||
Also the '''wgdd-archive-keyring''' package then is obsolete together with the repository keyring. If you have the package installed, do: | |||
sudo apt-get autoremove --purge wgdd-archive-keyring | |||
... or if you only had the key: | |||
sudo apt-key del E394D996 | |||

To enable a bluefish-release dnf repository download the [http://bluefish.linuxexperience.net/downloads/fedora/bluefish-release.repo bluefish-release.repo] file.<br/> | |||
Place this repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d<br/> | |||
Then you can install normally with... | |||
dnf install bluefish | |||
Packages are currently provided for Fedora 24 and 25. Packages are provided for both i386 and x86_64.<br/> | |||
All packages are built using mock. All packages are signed. You will be prompted to download the GPG key.<br/> | |||
