Line 14: Line 15:
To install LXQt on Debian 8 (Jessie) you need to do the following:     '''# apt install lxqt-core'''
    '''# apt install lxqt'''
    '''# apt install task-lxqt-desktop'''
Line 16: Line 19:
1) First, you need to add the following two lines to /etc/apt/sources.list:

    '''deb http://packages.siduction.org/lxqt jessie-backports main'''
    '''deb-src http://packages.siduction.org/lxqt jessie-backports main'''

2) Now grab the PGP keys for the apt repository, to verify the packages after they are downloaded:

    '''apt-key adv --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key 15CBD88045C45076'''

3) Now update your package list:

    '''apt-get update'''


4) ... and install LXQt:

    '''apt-get install lxqt'''
There will be live-iso's soon.
