Jenkins Debian Packages
This is the Debian package repository of Jenkins to automate installation and upgrade. To use this repository, first add the key to your system (for the Weekly Release Line):
sudo wget -O /etc/apt/keyrings/jenkins-keyring.asc \
https://pkg.jenkins.io/debian/jenkins.io-2026.key
Then add a Jenkins apt repository entry:
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/jenkins-keyring.asc]" \
https://pkg.jenkins.io/debian binary/ | sudo tee \
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/jenkins.list > /dev/null
Update your local package index, then finally install Jenkins:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install fontconfig openjdk-21-jre
sudo apt-get install jenkins
(Get JDK 21 from https://adoptium.net on Debian 12 or earlier)
The apt packages were signed using this key:

You will need to explicitly install a supported Java runtime environment (JRE), either from your distribution (as described above) or another Java vendor (e.g., Adoptium).
To determine the Java version that is supported for your Jenkins environment, please refer to the Java support policy.
See the installation guide for more information, including how Jenkins is run and where the configuration is stored, etc.
