In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Apache Maven on Clear Linux Latest. Maven is a build management tool for Java-based projects. It manages the build process, dependencies, and project documentation.
Before we start with the installation, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
Before installing any new software on Clear Linux Latest, it is important to update the system. Open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo swupd update
This command will update the system to the latest version.
Maven requires Java Development Kit (JDK) to be installed on the system. To install JDK on Clear Linux Latest, run the following command:
sudo swupd bundle-add java-devel
This command will install the latest version of JDK on the system.
To download and extract Apache Maven, visit the official website at http://maven.apache.org/download.cgi. Scroll down and select the latest stable version of Apache Maven. We will download version 3.8.2 for this tutorial.
Open the terminal and run the following command to download Apache Maven:
wget https://apache.osuosl.org/maven/maven-3/3.8.2/binaries/apache-maven-3.8.2-bin.tar.gz
Once the download is complete, extract the downloaded package using the following command:
tar -xvzf apache-maven-3.8.2-bin.tar.gz
This will extract the package to a directory named apache-maven-3.8.2
.
To configure the environment variables, open the bashrc
file using the following command:
nano ~/.bashrc
Add the following lines at the end of the file:
export M2_HOME=/path/to/maven
export PATH=$PATH:$M2_HOME/bin
Replace /path/to/maven
with the path to the directory where Maven is extracted. In our case, it is /home/user/apache-maven-3.8.2
.
Save and close the file by pressing Ctrl+X
, followed by Y
, and then Enter

To apply the changes, run the following command:
