I don’t know how to make a package from binary. Is there any other easy way?
You don’ t need a package.
Download this:
https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/releases/download/v0.96.0/hugo_extended_0.96.0_Linux-64bit.tar.gz
Extract the binary (it’s named hugo), set perms, and place in your PATH.
Another possibility is to use hombrew/brew (https://brew.sh/).
But the relevant updates usually come out with a few days delay.
Updates are started with brew upgrade hugo
Hiya @somratpro.
I am a Fedora user! And I “install” Hugo by downloading the binary and putting in my path, which is as easy as putting it in ~/.local/bin
.
I install the majority of my software from Flatpak, some from Fedora repos, and a handful of projects as downloaded binaries. Here is my ~/.local/bin
:
maiki@deck:~/.local/bin$ ls -lah
total 71M
drwxr-xr-x 2 maiki maiki 4.0K Mar 21 15:03 .
drwxr-xr-x 4 maiki maiki 4.0K Sep 6 2021 ..
-rwxr-xr-x 1 maiki maiki 6.0M Oct 9 2021 fossil
-rwxr-xr-x 1 maiki maiki 52M Mar 16 07:59 hugo
-rwxr--r-- 1 maiki maiki 14M Nov 29 17:50 nvim
Those projects have release cycles and usage considerations that make them difficult to package.
I hadn’t updated Hugo in about a month, so I just “updated”:
maiki@deck:~/dl$ ls
hugo_0.96.0_Linux-64bit.tar.gz
maiki@deck:~/dl$ tar zxfv hugo_0.96.0_Linux-64bit.tar.gz
LICENSE
README.md
hugo
maiki@deck:~/dl$ mv hugo ~/.local/bin/
maiki@deck:~/dl$ hugo version
hugo v0.96.0-2fd4a7d3d6845e75f8b8ae3a2a7bd91438967bbb linux/amd64 BuildDate=2022-03-26T09:15:58Z VendorInfo=gohugoio
Hope that helps.
The install page also mentions the Fedora Copr package here: daftaupe/hugo Copr
It’s the one I personally use on my Fedora installation. It’s going to be a few versions behind, but if you’re like me and you want to avoid manually updating binaries or additional package managers, this is the next best option.
