How to install Holo

Whenever possible, install Holo as a package. Package sources are listed below by distribution. (If you are a packager, please contact us if you're working on getting Holo packaged in your distribution.)

From source

Alternatively, install from source by cloning the corresponding Git repos and looking at the README.md:

Arch Linux packages

Packages are available from the AUR. If you prefer pre-compiled packages, you can use our repository (only available for x86_64 at the moment). Add the following to your /etc/pacman.conf:

[holo]
Server = https://repo.holocm.org/archlinux/$arch

The packages are signed with GPG, so you need to import and trust the signing key. The repo contains a keyring package that you can use for this, but make sure to validate the checksum before installing it.

$ wget https://repo.holocm.org/archlinux/x86_64/holo-keyring-20201009.1-1-any.pkg.tar.xz
...
$ sha256sum < holo-keyring-20201009.1-1-any.pkg.tar.xz
dec378054732fad0109eeff5da3933cefb70eaeb14217f20a33510f3772aea95  -
$ sudo pacman -U holo-keyring-20201009.1-1-any.pkg.tar.xz
...

To get a list of all packages in the repo, use:

$ sudo pacman -Syl holo

To give feedback about these packages, please use GitHub Issues.
