Nothing said what is in a release or what it needs of the machine it lands on: that the Linux binaries are built -march=x86-64-v3 and the Windows ones /arch:AVX, so each has a CPU floor; that the portable .tgz is built on RHEL 8 for its glibc; that the Windows installer is MSVC (Visual Studio 2026), CUDA 13.3, Qt 6.11 and carries the Qt runtime; and above all what the CUDA variants need. Only cuFFT is linked dynamically, and it has no link-time dependency on the driver library, so a CUDA build starts on a machine with no NVIDIA GPU at all and falls back to the CPU path - as long as cuFFT can be loaded, which the .tgz and the installer arrange by shipping it and the distribution packages arrange through the distribution's own CUDA packages. Collected into a new page rather than scattered over the install instructions. The repository page had the RHEL 9 rows pointing at el8 paths under the wrong slsdet number, no rows at all for the two slsdet9 repositories the pipeline uploads, a driver package named jfjoch-driver where it is jfjoch-driver-dkms, and a note that RPMs are unsigned from before the pipeline started uploading them with sign=true. The FPGA page had a paragraph that stopped mid-sentence, in the middle of a link, and a section describing a firmware build triggered by commit message. The firmware is stable and carried from version to version now. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Linux package repositories
|
|
For convenience, we are providing package repositories. With versions including and excluding CUDA linking.
|
|
We recommend to install Jungfraujoch viewer from `nocuda` repository and remaining packages from `cuda12`/`cuda13` repository.
|
|
|
|
The repository name encodes two choices: the [slsDetectorPackage](DETECTORS.md) version the packages
|
|
were built against (`slsdet8` = 8.0.2, `slsdet9` = 9.2.0 — it must match the detector firmware) and
|
|
whether CUDA is linked in. What ends up inside each package, and what it needs on the target
|
|
machine, is described in [Release contents](RELEASE_CONTENTS.md).
|
|
|
|
## RHEL based systems
|
|
|
|
For RHEL systems we provide the following repositories:
|
|
|
|
| RHEL version | slsDetectorPackage | CUDA | Repository file |
|
|
|--------------|--------------------|------|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| 8.x | 8.0.2 | 12.x | https://gitea.psi.ch/api/packages/mx/rpm/centos/el8/slsdet8-cuda12.repo |
|
|
| 8.x | 9.2.0 | 12.x | https://gitea.psi.ch/api/packages/mx/rpm/centos/el8/slsdet9-cuda12.repo |
|
|
| 8.x | 8.0.2 | - | https://gitea.psi.ch/api/packages/mx/rpm/centos/el8/slsdet8-nocuda.repo |
|
|
| 9.x | 8.0.2 | 13.x | https://gitea.psi.ch/api/packages/mx/rpm/centos/el9/slsdet8-cuda13.repo |
|
|
| 9.x | 9.2.0 | 13.x | https://gitea.psi.ch/api/packages/mx/rpm/centos/el9/slsdet9-cuda13.repo |
|
|
| 9.x | 8.0.2 | - | https://gitea.psi.ch/api/packages/mx/rpm/centos/el9/slsdet8-nocuda.repo |
|
|
|
|
To install the repository, run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
dnf config-manager --add-repo https://gitea.psi.ch/api/packages/mx/rpm/centos/el8/slsdet8-cuda12.repo
|
|
```
|
|
RPMs are signed by the Gitea package registry as they are uploaded. If your system cannot verify the
|
|
signature, set `gpgcheck=0` in the repository file or install with `--nogpgcheck`.
|
|
|
|
We provide the following packages in the repository:
|
|
* jfjoch — broker, web frontend, FPGA and detector command-line tools
|
|
* jfjoch-driver-dkms — PCIe kernel-module source, built by DKMS
|
|
* jfjoch-writer — HDF5 writer service
|
|
* jfjoch-viewer — desktop viewer, the offline analysis tools and the XDS plugin
|
|
|
|
## Ubuntu based systems
|
|
|
|
For Ubuntu systems, we also provide the following repositories:
|
|
```
|
|
sudo curl https://gitea.psi.ch/api/packages/mx/debian/repository.key -o /etc/apt/keyrings/gitea-mx.asc
|
|
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/gitea-mx.asc] https://gitea.psi.ch/api/packages/mx/debian $distribution $component" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gitea.list
|
|
sudo apt update
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`$distribution` uses Ubuntu names `jammy` (22.04) and `noble` (24.04). `$component` can be set to `cuda13` and `nocuda`.
|
|
Only slsDetectorPackage 8.0.2 is built for Ubuntu.
|
|
|
|
The same four packages as above are provided: `jfjoch`, `jfjoch-driver-dkms`, `jfjoch-writer` and
|
|
`jfjoch-viewer`. Up to 1.0.0-rc.160 the first of them was misnamed `jfjoch-jfjoch`; the current
|
|
package replaces it, so `apt upgrade` handles the rename.
|
|
|
|
Ubuntu packages are currently only going through a very limited testing.
