The macOS disk image is universal and runs on both Apple silicon and Intel. Windows and Linux need the build that matches your processor.
On Linux, prefer a package repository over a file. Fluxer then updates with the rest of your system.
## Linux package repositories
All four repositories serve stable and canary. The package is `fluxer` for stable and `fluxer-canary` for canary.
### Flatpak
Opening [this reference file][flatpak-ref] hands the install to your desktop software manager. Some desktops also accept `flatpak+https://pkgs.fluxer.com/flatpak/fluxer.flatpakref` pasted into the address bar.
From a terminal:
```sh
flatpak install https://pkgs.fluxer.com/flatpak/fluxer.flatpakref
```
### Debian and Ubuntu
```sh
sudo install -d -m 0755 /etc/apt/keyrings
sudo curl -fsSL -o /etc/apt/keyrings/fluxer-archive-keyring.gpg https://pkgs.fluxer.com/keys/fluxer-archive-keyring.gpg
sudo curl -fsSL -o /etc/apt/sources.list.d/fluxer.sources https://pkgs.fluxer.com/deb/fluxer.sources
sudo apt update && sudo apt install fluxer
```
### Fedora and RHEL
```sh
sudo curl -fsSL -o /etc/yum.repos.d/fluxer.repo https://pkgs.fluxer.com/rpm/fluxer.repo
sudo dnf install fluxer
```
RHEL, Rocky, Alma and CentOS Stream need `sudo dnf install epel-release` first, because the base repositories do not ship `libXScrnSaver`. Fedora does not need this.
### Arch Linux
The repository is signed, so pacman needs the key in its own keyring once:
```sh
sudo pacman-key --init
curl -fsSL -o /tmp/fluxer-archive-keyring.asc https://pkgs.fluxer.com/keys/fluxer-archive-keyring.asc
sudo pacman-key --add /tmp/fluxer-archive-keyring.asc
sudo pacman-key --lsign-key 09D01339EE128925F75E675C855C5BDE34D205D2
```
`--lsign-key` is the step that makes pacman trust the key. Then add the repository:
```sh
sudo tee -a /etc/pacman.conf >/dev/null <<'REPO'
[fluxer]
SigLevel = Required TrustedOnly
Server = https://pkgs.fluxer.com/arch/$repo/os/$arch
REPO
sudo pacman -Syu fluxer
```
Write `$repo` and `$arch` literally. Both are pacman variables, not shell ones, which is why the heredoc above is quoted.
Full setup notes, including the canary channel, live in the [Linux repositories documentation][docs-linux].
