Repositories in {pve}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Repositories are a collection of software packages, they can be used to install
new software, but are also important to get new updates.
NOTE: You need valid Debian and Proxmox repositories to get the latest
security updates, bug fixes and new features.
APT Repositories are defined in the file `/etc/apt/sources.list` and in `.list`
files placed in `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/`.
Repository Management
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
[thumbnail="screenshot/gui-node-repositories.png"]
Since Proxmox VE 7.0 you can check the repository state in the web interface.
The node summary panel shows a high level status overview, while the separate
'Repository' panel shows in-depth status and list of all configured
repositories.
Basic repository management, for example, activating or deactivating a
repository, is also supported.
Sources.list
^^^^^^^^^^^^
In a `sources.list` file, each line defines a package repository. The preferred
source must come first. Empty lines are ignored. A `#` character anywhere on a
line marks the remainder of that line as a comment. The available packages from
a repository are acquired by running `apt-get update`. Updates can be installed
directly using `apt-get`, or via the GUI (Node -> Updates).
