MonetDB Download Area for Debian uand Ubuntu
Important notice: On August 2, 2017 a new GPG key was generated to sign Debian and Ubuntu packages with. If you installed the MonetDB GPG public key before that time, please just do so again per the instructions below.
This directory contains the packages for Debian and Ubuntu. We usually build for all current versions of Debian and Ubuntu.
Create a file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/monetdb.list
with the following contents (replacing "suite"
with your system's code name which you may be able to get by
running the command lsb_release -cs):
deb https://dev.monetdb.org/downloads/deb/ suite monetdb deb-src https://dev.monetdb.org/downloads/deb/ suite monetdb
Then issue the following command to install the MonetDB GPG public key:
wget --output-document=- https://www.monetdb.org/downloads/MonetDB-GPG-KEY | sudo apt-key add -
After this, you can use apt to install the
MonetDB packages. First run:
sudo apt update
To install MonetDB/SQL, use the command:
sudo apt install monetdb5-sql monetdb-client
If you wish (and your system uses it), you can have
systemd manage the MonetDB service.
If you do, the databases will be in
/var/monetdb5/dbfarm:
sudo systemctl enable monetdbd sudo systemctl start monetdbd
Add any users who are allowed to run a database server to the
monetdb group, which was automatically created in
the previous step:
sudo usermod -a -G monetdb $USER
Then log out and back in again to activate this change. After this
you can run monetdbd or mserver5.
Further information about the "Aug2018-SP1" release is available in the release notes.
