SkyMob apt repository

Signed Debian package channel for the SkyMob edge appliances.

Carries skbridge, the LAN↔cloud bridge appliance, and skprinter, the label printer service that runs alongside it — both for amd64 (virtual machines) and arm64 (the physical appliance). Requires Debian 13 (trixie) or newer.

Install

sudo apt install -y curl
sudo install -d /etc/apt/keyrings
sudo curl -fsSL https://apt.skymob.app/skymob.asc -o /etc/apt/keyrings/skymob.asc
sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/skymob.sources >/dev/null <<'EOF'

sudo apt update
sudo apt install skbridge

Add skprinter if the site prints labels. The two are independent and coexist on one appliance. Every later upgrade is sudo apt upgrade.

Beta

New versions land on a beta suite first and stay there until they have proven themselves. To let a site take them early, add it alongside stable — not instead of it, since beta is empty between candidates:

sudo sed -i 's/^Suites: stable$/Suites: stable beta/' \
  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/skymob.sources
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

Reverse the edit to leave. apt will not downgrade on its own, so a machine already carrying a beta version goes back with sudo apt install <package>=<version> --allow-downgrades.
