Add the appropriate repository to your apt sources by using the line that corresponds to your Debian version:
- For Debian 10 sudo bash -c "echo 'deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/yoursecurecloud-sync-keyring.asc] https://linux-clients.seafile.com/seafile-deb/buster/ stable main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yoursecurecloud-sync.list" - For Debian 11 sudo bash -c "echo 'deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/yoursecurecloud-sync-keyring.asc] https://linux-clients.seafile.com/seafile-deb/bullseye/ stable main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yoursecurecloud-sync.list" - For Ubuntu 18.04 sudo bash -c "echo 'deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/yoursecurecloud-sync-keyring.asc] https://linux-clients.seafile.com/seafile-deb/bionic/ stable main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yoursecurecloud-sync.list" - For Ubuntu 20.04 sudo bash -c "echo 'deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/yoursecurecloud-sync-keyring.asc] https://linux-clients.seafile.com/seafile-deb/focal/ stable main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yoursecurecloud-sync.list" - For Ubuntu 22.04 sudo bash -c "echo 'deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/yoursecurecloud-sync-keyring.asc] https://linux-clients.seafile.com/seafile-deb/jammy/ stable main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yoursecurecloud-sync.list"
