Icecast Server/Installing latest version (official Xiph repositories)

2016-10-19T22:59:39Z

MechanisM: Added Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial LTS

Xiph.org provides the latest version of Icecast packaged for [https://build.opensuse.org/package/repositories/multimedia:xiph/icecast various distributions]. The packages are built centrally from [https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/multimedia:xiph/icecast one set of sources] on the [https://build.opensuse.org/ openSUSE OpenBuildService instance] in the [https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/multimedia:xiph Multimedia/Xiph.org project].

Packages are usually available on release day. Packaging follows closely the original distro packaging to stay a seamless drop in replacement. The packages are meant for users who need the latest version of Icecast or HTTPS support, while their distribution doesn't provide it.

== Debian and Ubuntu (in all its flavors) ==
It takes 4 simple commands to install the latest Icecast version on a deb based distro.

==== Add the repository ====
This expects that you have ''sudo'' installed, if not, open a root shell and run the ''echo'' command directly.

Copy paste the command for your distribution release and make sure that it's executed as '''one''' line!

==== Import the ''Multimedia'' signing key ====
You need to add the openSUSE OBS [http://icecast.org/multimedia-obs.key '''Multimedia''' signing key] as a trusted key to your system.
There are many ways to verify they key, e.g. by a simple web search. After downloading the key, you can run this command: 
<code><nowiki>gpg multimedia-obs.key</nowiki></code> 
Should yield: 
<code><nowiki>pub 1024D/3A802234 2009-04-23 multimedia OBS Project <multimedia@build.opensuse.org></nowiki></code> 
Then you can import it: 
<code><nowiki>sudo apt-key add multimedia-obs.key</nowiki></code> 

The most simple, but not recommended way is: 
<code><nowiki>wget -qO - http://icecast.org/multimedia-obs.key | sudo apt-key add -</nowiki></code> 

==== Update repository index ====
<code><nowiki>sudo apt-get update</nowiki></code>
