Arch

i2pd packages are available at Arch's extra repository for release version, and AUR for nightly builds.

You can download them by running

 pacman -S i2pd --noconfirm

Gentoo

i2pd has a working ebuild in the main gentoo repository. As of May 2018, the ebuild is still listed as "unstable", and thus will request an exception in your package.keywords if you are using gentoo under the "stable" branch. To install i2pd, enter the command:

emerge --ask net-vpn/i2pd

If you use gcc to compile packages and would like to enable cmake's hardening features, use the i2p-hardening flag (recommended). If you intend to use the websocket server, enable the websocket flag.

Debian

Look for Debian packages at the latest release page.

Alternatively, you can install i2pd by using repository run by PurpleI2P community member R4SAS.

sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https

Automatically add repository

wget -q -O - https://repo.i2pd.xyz/.help/add_repo | sudo bash -s -
