Linux Software Repository for Microsoft
Products
Article • 02/23/2024
Linux versions of many Microsoft software products are
supported and hosted on the
"Linux software repository for Microsoft products":
https://packages.microsoft.com
.
Packages.microsoft.com is a public repository meant to be consumed programmatically
by Linux packaging clients, including apt (for Linux distributions like Ubuntu or Debian)
dnf / yum (for RPM-based distributions
like RedHat Enterprise, Fedora, CentOS, or
Oracle Enterprise), or zypper (for SUSE Linux). In addition to the Linux packaging client
directories, it includes related config files and keys.
You can learn more about the PMC service (packages.microsoft.com), file issues or pull

Package Repositories
.
The Linux Software Repository can be configured to automatically
install the Linux
package that applies to your Linux distribution and version. Each Microsoft product may
require a slightly different installation process. The package install includes the
repository
configuration, along with the GPG public key used to validate the signed
packages and/or repository metadata.
