What are Repositories?

There are thousands of programs available to install on Ubuntu. These programs are stored in software archives (repositories) and are available for installation over the Internet. This makes it very easy to install new programs. It is also very secure, because each program you install is thoroughly tested and built specifically for Ubuntu.

The Ubuntu software repository is organised into four "components", on the basis of the level of support Ubuntu can offer them, and whether or not they comply with Ubuntu's Free Software Philosophy. The components are called Main (officially supported software), Restricted (supported software that is not available under a completely free license), Universe (community-maintained, i.e. not officially supported software) and Multiverse (software that is "not free"). You can find more information about the Ubuntu Repositories here.

The Ubuntu Install CDs contain software from the Main and Restricted components. Once your system is made aware of the Internet-based locations for these repositories, many more software programs are made available for installation. Using the software package management tools already installed on your system, you can search for, install and update any piece of software directly over the Internet, without the need for the CD.

Managing Local Repositories

Disable the CD-ROM Repository

If you have installed Ubuntu from one of Ubuntu's CD-ROMs, the CD will be included in the list of repositories used by the package managment tools. When you install a new package, Synaptic will check whether the package is available locally (i.e. on the CD-ROM). Synaptic may then ask for the CD-ROM. This can help reduce the size of downloads and speed up the installation process. If you would like Synaptic to rely solely on the internet repositories for package management, you can disable the CD-ROM entry with a few steps:

  • Launch Synaptic and navigate to "Settings" > "Repositories".
    A list of software repositories or "Channels" will be shown.
  • Locate the entry for the CD-ROM (it may say something like CD disk with Ubuntu 6.06 LTS). Click on the checkbox next to it to disable the CD-ROM as a software source.
  • Click the Close button to save the changes you have made.
  • You can re-enable the CD-ROM at any time using the checkbox next to itshttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/IconsPage?action=Ahttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/IconsPage?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=eyes.png+Use+with+caution%3A+At+present%2C+you+will+not+be+asked+to+confirm+the+remove+action.+This+is+not+a+problem+with+the+Ubuntu+repositories+as+you+can+simply+%5B%5Badd+add+them+again%5D%5D%2C+but+you+may+have+to+look+up+ahttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=edit-channel.pngyou+mistakenly+delete+it.+%28It+is+always+a+good+idea+to+back+up+your+sources.list%29will not be asked to confirm the remove action.
