Tor and I2P mirror

Awesome !

Trisquel repository over Tor

It's easy to install applications and update your Trisquel GNU/Linux-libre over Tor Onion Service mirror:

Open the Terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and paste this command to install apt-transport-tor:

sudo apt install apt-transport-tor -y

Now paste this command in the Terminal to change the clearnet default repository to Tor Onion Service:

sudo sed -i 's|https://archive.trisquel.org|tor+http://35pwbq5bpzdclyrdhenxvzv7secmnfv3qhdn4krgdr46yo3k2gnyeeid.onion|' /etc/apt/sources.list

Now start and enable Tor:

sudo systemctl enable --now tor

Done. Now you can install applications and update your libre system over Tor repository:
sudo apt update -y && sudo apt upgrade -y

If you want to return to clearnet repository, run this command:
sudo sed -i 's|tor+http://35pwbq5bpzdclyrdhenxvzv7secmnfv3qhdn4krgdr46yo3k2gnyeeid.onion|https://archive.trisquel.org|' /etc/apt/sources.list

GNU Linux-libre (.deb Freesh repository) over Tor

In the Terminal, download the repository:

torsocks wget http://35pwbq5bpzdclyrdhenxvzv7secmnfv3qhdn4krgdr46yo3k2gnyeeid.onion/linux-libre/freesh/pool/main/f/freesh-archive-keyring/freesh-archive-keyring_1.1_all.deb

Now install the repository:

sudo dpkg -i freesh-archive-keyring_1.1_all.deb

And change the clearnet repository to Tor:

sudo sed -i 's|mirror://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/freesh/mirrors.txt|tor+http://35pwbq5bpzdclyrdhenxvzv7secmnfv3qhdn4krgdr46yo3k2gnyeeid.onion/linux-libre/freesh|' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/freesh.sources

If you want the latest kernel version:

sudo apt install linux-libre

If you want to use a long-term support (LTS) kernel version:

sudo apt install linux-libre-lts

If you want to return to the clearnet repository, paste this command:

sudo sed -i 's|tor+http://35pwbq5bpzdclyrdhenxvzv7secmnfv3qhdn4krgdr46yo3k2gnyeeid.onion/linux-libre/freesh|mirror://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/freesh/mirrors.txt|' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/freesh.sources

Trisquel repository over I2P

It's easy to install applications and update your Trisquel GNU/Linux-libre over I2P Eepsite mirror:

Install the updated version of i2pd and the apt-transport-i2phttp over Tor:

sudo apt update -y && sudo apt install i2pd -y && torsocks wget http://35pwbq5bpzdclyrdhenxvzv7secmnfv3qhdn4krgdr46yo3k2gnyeeid.onion/i2pd_2.53.1_amd64.deb && sudo dpkg -i i2pd_2.53.1_amd64.deb && torsocks wget http://35pwbq5bpzdclyrdhenxvzv7secmnfv3qhdn4krgdr46yo3k2gnyeeid.onion/apt-transport-i2phttp_0.4_amd64.deb && sudo dpkg -i apt-transport-i2phttp_0.4_amd64.deb

Paste this to add the I2P respository in the sources.list.d:

sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/trisquel-i2p.sources << EOF > /dev/null
X-Repolib-Name: Trisquel Archive over I2P

Done. Now update and install applications over I2P in Trisquel:

sudo apt update -y && sudo apt upgrade -y

If you want to disable the I2P repository, paste this command:
sudo sed -i 's|Enabled: yes|Enabled: no|' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/trisquel-i2p.sources

If you want to return to the clearnet repository, paste this command:

sudo sed -i 's|#deb https:|deb https:|' /etc/apt/sources.list

If you want to return to Tor repository, paste this command:

sudo sed -i 's|#deb tor+http:|deb tor+http:|' /etc/apt/sources.list

If you want to activate the I2P repository again, paste this command:
sudo sed -i 's|Enabled: no|Enabled: yes|' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/trisquel-i2p.sources

http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:4444 wget http://dnhxnvov44chego5mmrq52ku3kdwuu46qlqhbhkngl7yvvllewtq.b32.i2p/linux-libre/freesh/pool/main/f/freesh-archive-keyring/freesh-archive-keyring_1.1_all.deb

Now install the repository:

sudo dpkg -i freesh-archive-keyring_1.1_all.deb

And change the clearnet repository to I2P:

sudo sed -i 's|mirror://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/freesh/mirrors.txt|i2p://dnhxnvov44chego5mmrq52ku3kdwuu46qlqhbhkngl7yvvllewtq.b32.i2p/linux-libre/freesh|' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/freesh.sources

sudo apt install linux-libre

If you want to use a long-term support (LTS) kernel version:

sudo apt install linux-libre-lts

If you want to return to the clearnet repository, paste this command:

sudo sed -i 's|i2p://dnhxnvov44chego5mmrq52ku3kdwuu46qlqhbhkngl7yvvllewtq.b32.i2p/linux-libre/freesh|mirror://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/freesh/mirrors.txt|' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/freesh.sources

If you want to return to Tor repository, paste this command:

sudo sed -i 's|i2p://dnhxnvov44chego5mmrq52ku3kdwuu46qlqhbhkngl7yvvllewtq.b32.i2p/linux-libre/freesh|tor+http://35pwbq5bpzdclyrdhenxvzv7secmnfv3qhdn4krgdr46yo3k2gnyeeid.onion/linux-libre/freesh|' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/freesh.sources

Thank you icarolongo. Two remarks though:

• Such instructions, but more generic (for any mirror), would be more useful in https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/packages-repository (that you edited today?!) or maybe in a separate manual;
• Your first substitution assumes the use of https://archive.trisquel.org but there are many mirrors and I feel it would be better to instruct the use of 'sudo apt edit-sources' and directly list the lines to have (as in the current manual) instead of using sed (by the way: no need for the g flag here) and other instructions to return to the previous configuration.

I just set the "book outline" of https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/mirrors, so its parent wiki is now https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/packages-repository instead of "none" and also added it to https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/all-manuals.
