Install on RHEL, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux and Oracle Linux

For RHEL, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux and Oracle Linux 8 and 9, on x86_64 and aarch64. Or use the one-liner.

1. Add the repository

sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/updawg.repo > /dev/null <<'REPO'
[updawg]
name=Updawg
baseurl=https://pkg.updawg.net/rpm/stable
enabled=1
repo_gpgcheck=1
gpgcheck=0
gpgkey=https://pkg.updawg.net/updawg.asc
REPO

repo_gpgcheck=1 makes dnf check the signature on the repository’s metadata, which fixes the SHA-256 of every package in it. gpgcheck=0 because the packages themselves carry no signature of their own: the signed metadata is what vouches for them. Replace stable with beta for every build as soon as it passes its tests.

2. Install and enrol

sudo dnf install updawg-agent

dnf asks once whether to import the repository’s key. Accept it only if the fingerprint it shows is 4FFF 29A6 2F24 ACF3 E043 76EE DFD5 B8C2 CBCF 67C5.

sudo UPDAWG_TOKEN=enr_... updawgctl enroll
sudo systemctl restart updawgd

The package starts updawgd, which waits while the host is not enrolled; the restart is what makes it pick up the identity enroll wrote. sudo updawgctl status shows where it stands.

What the package installs

Path	What
/usr/bin/updawgd, /usr/bin/updawgctl	The agent and its command line
/usr/lib/systemd/system/updawgd.service	The service, enabled and started on install
/etc/updawg/agent.toml	Its configuration — %config(noreplace), so an upgrade never replaces your edits
/var/lib/updawg/	Its identity and state, written on enrolment

Upgrades arrive with your ordinary dnf upgrade, and restart the service only if it was running.
