GNU/Linux Debian Testing Non-free Repository Add Step-by-step

October 18, 2019 | By the+gnu+linux+evangelist.

Adding Repo

  1. 2. Adding Non-free Repo

    Then to Add Non Free Repository in Debian Testing
    Edit Repo with nano Editor:

    Simply run:

    At the end of each line after ‘main’ append:

     contrib non-free non-free-firmware

    Like:
    deb http://deb.debian.org/debian [MYRELEASE] main contrib non-free non-free-firmware
    Ctrl+x to Save & Exit from nano Editor.
    Last, Refresh the Apt Sources with:

    sudo apt update
  2. 3. Preserving Debian Free System

    (Optional) This if you want to Preserve the Valuable Free Nature of Debian System.
    To do so you have to strictly Allowing only the Installation of Some Non-free Package with an Apt Pinning.
    First, Disable All Non free Software with this content:

    Explanation: Disable packages from non-free tree by default
    Package: *
    Pin: release o=Debian,a=stable,l=Debian,c=non-free
    Pin-Priority: -1
    

    To Make it at once execute:

    sudo echo -e "Explanation: Disable packages from non-free tree by default
    Package: *
    Pin: release o=Debian,a=stable,l=Debian,c=non-free
    Pin-Priority: -1" > /etc/apt/preferences.d/non-free_policy

    And then Enable the Software of Choice, E.g. firmware-iwlwifi:

    Explanation: Enable package firmware-iwlwifi from non-free tree
    Package: firmware-iwlwifi
    Pin: release o=Debian,a=stable,l=Debian,c=non-free
    Pin-Priority:0
    

    Again with a simple echo:)

    sudo echo -e "Explanation: Enable package firmware-iwlwifi from non-free tree
    Package: firmware-iwlwifi
    Pin: release o=Debian,a=stable,l=Debian,c=non-free
    Pin-Priority:0" > /etc/apt/preferences.d/firmware-iwlwifi_non-free

    But to enable Multiple packages at once proceed like that:

    Explanation: Enable package firmware-iwlwifi nvidia-driver from non-free tree
    Package: firmware-iwlwifi nvidia-driver
    Pin: release o=Debian,a=stable,l=Debian,c=non-free
    Pin-Priority:0
    

    Again translated in a Command like:

    sudo echo -e "Explanation: Enable package firmware-iwlwifi nvidia-driver from non-free tree
    Package: firmware-iwlwifi nvidia-driver
    Pin: release o=Debian,a=stable,l=Debian,c=non-free
    Pin-Priority:0" > /etc/apt/preferences.d/enabled-packages_non-free

    The only drawback of the procedure is that you have to repeat it every time you need some new Non-free software…
