{{Header}} __TOC__ There are two different options to enable the {{project_name_short}} APT repository. Choose one. extrepo vs manual: * '''Usability:''' ** There are some detail usability differences. Using onion connection might be easier with manual method until {{project_name_short}} gets ported to Debian 13 / trixie because extrepo might get onion support then. ** Apart from that, extrepo's usability seems generally better. * '''Security:''' ** A detailed comparative research of both methods is unavailable. ** If usability is considered a security feature, then extrepo might be considered more secure. This is because users do not have to learn as much about [[Verifying Software Signatures]], [[OpenPGP]], its many [[Software Signature Verification Usability Issues and Proposed Solutions|Software Signature Verification Usability Issues]]. Debian which is already trusted by the user providing a trust path to the {{project_name_short}} signing key. Manual key fingerprint verification not required. ** The extrepo project is a huge amount of work adding all the signing keys for many different projects. The code for securely downloading a signing key in the Python is not among the most difficult programming tasks to get correct. Compared with curl (written in C), it might be more secure. * '''Keeping support for manual method:''' ** Removal of the manual method is not planned. Since already written, the maintenance effort for that very part of documentation is low. In case extrepo signing key is outdated, get deprecated, it's easy to switch back to manual method. {{Tab |type=controller |content= {{Tab |active=true |addToClass=info-box |title= {{Headline|h=4|content=Using extrepo}} |content= {{project-extrepo-add}} }} {{Tab |active=false |addToClass=info-box |title= {{Headline|h=4|content=Manually}} |content= '''Add Signing Key''' {{W-APT-Repository-Key}} '''Add Repository''' {{Project-APT-Sources-Add}} }} }} = Footnotes = [[Category:MultiWiki]] {{Footer}}
