In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps required to install NewsBlur on Arch Linux.
Before starting the installation process, make sure the following prerequisites are met:
The first step is to add the NewsBlur package to the Pacman repository. To do this, we need to add the following line in the /etc/pacman.conf file:
[newsblur]
SigLevel = Optional TrustAll
Server = https://s3.amazonaws.com/newsblur/Arch/$arch
To edit the file, run the following command:
sudo nano /etc/pacman.conf
Add the above lines at the end of the file, save and exit.
Now, we need to update the package database to include the newly added repository. Run the following command to update the package database:
sudo pacman -Sy
Once the package database is updated, we can install NewsBlur. Run the following command to install NewsBlur:
sudo pacman -S newsblur
This will install NewsBlur on your Arch Linux system.
Now that NewsBlur is installed, we can start the service. Run the following command to start the newsblur service:
sudo systemctl start newsblur
You can also enable the service to start on boot by running the following command:
sudo systemctl enable newsblur
Congratulations! You have successfully installed NewsBlur on your Arch Linux system. You can now use NewsBlur to stay up-to-date with your favorite news sources.
