rustdesk-apt-repo-latest

Important

This is unofficial RustDesk apt repo, what I can say is trust me bro, it is your decision to trust me or not.

Note

You're viewing latest channel, click me to check Nightly channel.

Note

This repo also contains RustDesk Server suite including hbbr, hbbs, utils, though I personality recommand to use Docker 🐋 .

Note

Same thing but RPM is also available.

This repo will use morph027/apt-repo-action to create repo, and deploy to GitHub Pages.

The .sh script is written by ChatGPT, it will fetch the release data from GitHub API and use jq to parse JSON data and find the asset URL.

This repo provides following architectures

• amd64 (x86_64)
• arm64 (aarch64)

FAQ

Not needed anymore, just enable i386 support in the repo, no any packages in it is fine.

I got i386 error

If you got the warning like this

N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-i386/Packages' as repository 'https://xlionjuan.github.io/rustdesk-apt-repo-latest main InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'i386'

This is because you enabled i386(32bit) on your apt, mainly because you're a developer or you have installed Steam 32bit library, you can ignore this, but it is annoying! Let's fix this

Deb822

Uncomment the line with Architectures:

Older style

Comment the line starts with deb, and uncomment the line that has arch=amd64
