nginx 1.7.3 is now available on apt.kura.gg with updated versions of both pagespeed and naxsi.
Pagespeed is now version 1.8.31.4 and Naxsi is 0.53-2, both are the latest versions available and will be used for each nginx release until newer versions are available.
I have made a breaking change to the apt.kura.gg repositories.
Ubuntu is now properly supported, but to do this properly it meant separating Ubuntu and Debian in to totally separate sections to fix the dependency issues.
Anyone currently using apt.kura.gg as it is will get 404 errors and will need to reconfigure their APT settings.
sudo sed -i 's/apt.kura.gg\//apt.kura.gg\/debian\//g' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/apt.kura.gg.list
sudo sed -i 's/apt.kura.gg\//apt.kura.gg\/ubuntu\//g' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/apt.kura.gg.list
I have decided to support the i386 architecture on apt.kura.gg as well as amd64.
After releasing my own versions of haproxy with SPDY support and nginx with ngx_pagespeed and SPDY support, I decided it would make sense to actually host these in my own apt repository, so I did.
You can enable this by adding it to your apt config.
wget -qO - https://apt.kura.gg/apt.kura.gg.key | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://apt.kura.gg/ `lsb_release -cs` main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/apt.kura.gg.list
sudo apt-get update
Simple.
I have created a scripts that handle these tasks for you, available `here`_.
First thing we need to do is create an sources list specifically for security.
sudo grep "-security" /etc/apt/sources.list | sudo grep -v "#" > /etc/apt/security.sources.list
Now that this is done we can simply continue to use the command below to trigger security-only upgrades
sudo apt-get upgrade -o Dir::Etc::SourceList=/etc/apt/security.sources.list
This will work until you upgrade your distro (e.g. 10.04 -> 12.04), at which point you will need to re-run the first command to regenerate the security.sources.list file.
This is a simple one but I found out that there are people out there that don’t know about it, so here we go.
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
This will install kernel headers for your current active kernel on Debian/Ubuntu.
Sometimes you want to be able to install packages on another machine without the hassle of a long apt-get install command or having to write down every single package you’ve installed.
Luckily Debian has the wonderful dpkg which has 2 methods for generating a list of installed packages and another for importing a list.
sudo dpkg --get-selections > selections
This will generate a file called selections which will contain something like
... snip ... adduser install apache2 install apache2-mpm-prefork install apache2-utils install apache2.2-bin install apache2.2-common install apt install ... snip...
This is just a simple, plain text file so can be copied between servers.
This is almost just as easy, first we need to actually set the list of selected packages
sudo dpkg --set-selections < selections
Then we need to actually do an update and install
sudo apt-get update && sudo …
