It's just much easier to go the docker route tbh

I can’t use docker on this system. I could put it in a VM but I’d like to avoid that. I’m surprised sab doesn’t maintain a more updated deb package and apt repo.

What do you mean? I am on Linux + Debian + KDE. This is my daily driver.

I've already looked into all the various options. For me, the option I want to go is SabNZBD directly on my linux box -- no VM or Docker.

I just thought I'd check if there was a better way to keep it updated since this post is old and hasn't had any comments/updates in a while.

I just wondered what prevented you from doing a docker install. I did try to do a recent install using the instructions from main page but had issues installing rust so went for docker

I need to run multiple VMs on different VLANs using bridged mode and that doesn't play nice with Docker. I could do things to make it work but I don't have time or want to muck with it. I can't use macvlan cause my router does not support hairpin mode. I've researched this for a hot minute. I could run Sab in a container on a VM but I'd rather avoid that. My use-case is very basic so running on bare metal is fine for me. I just don't like how old the Sab package is in Debian -- 3.7.1. 🙁

Ok.
But if you're that technical, why don't you run SABnzbd from source, with a python-venv? (Disclaimer: Maybe I missed something) See https://github.com/sabnzbd/sabnzbd/disc ... nt-6198486

Or: convert the PPA to *deb as https://wiki.debian.org/CreatePackageFromPPA seems to suggest

Or ... https://packages.debian.org/search?suit ... ds=sabnzbd ?

And finally: If "multiple VMs", why not Ubuntu one such a VM, where the PPA provides uptodate SABnzbd?

That's how I run it in Debian Bookworm. :)

I was hoping for path of least resistance. I'm technical but I don't have a lot of time to figure new things out. I don''t know how to do those things -- but I guess I'll have to learn. Thanks folks!

So I found another way for Debian Bookworm (12). Or I think it is another way. I am installing from stable-backports and I think this way I get automatic updates.

https://packages.debian.org/search?keyw ... &suite=all does not show an official backport for Debian Bookworm (12).

But I can see it in stable-backports:

Code: Select all

$ sudo rmadison sabnzbdplus

sabnzbdplus | 2.3.6+dfsg-1+deb10u2 | oldoldstable/contrib            | source, all
sabnzbdplus | 3.1.1+dfsg-2+deb11u1 | oldstable/contrib               | source, all
sabnzbdplus | 3.7.1+dfsg-1~bpo11+1 | bullseye-backports/contrib      | source, all
sabnzbdplus | 3.7.1+dfsg-2         | stable/contrib                  | source, all
sabnzbdplus | 4.1.0+dfsg-1~bpo12+1 | buildd-stable-backports/contrib | source, all
sabnzbdplus | 4.1.0+dfsg-1~bpo12+1 | stable-backports/contrib        | source, all
sabnzbdplus | 4.1.0+dfsg-1         | testing/contrib                 | source, all
sabnzbdplus | 4.1.0+dfsg-1         | unstable/contrib                | source, all
I added this to my /etc/apt/sources.list file:

Code: Select all

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian stable-backports main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
Then after doing apt update, I can see it and was able to install it.

Code: Select all

$ sudo apt search sabnzbdplus

Sorting... Done
Full Text Search... Done
sabnzbdplus/stable-backports,stable-backports,now 4.1.0+dfsg-1~bpo12+1 all [installed]
  web-based binary newsreader with nzb support

$ sudo apt install sabnzbdplus/stable-backports

@imthenachoman is this the result of jcfp's work? See https://github.com/sabnzbd/sabnzbd/disc ... nt-7261373

No. I was reading various Debian documents to try to figure it out. Never saw the link you shared.
