| 8 | +# Community Maintained Packages |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +These packages are maintained by community packagers independent of Jellyfin for distributions not officially supported by Jellyfin. We can't always support problems with community-maintained packages. If you encounter trouble with them, please contact their maintainers first. If you're not sure, we recommend using [container images](/docs/general/installation/container) on these systems instead. |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +## Alpine Linux |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +Jellyfin can be found in the `community` repository as |
| 15 | +[`jellyfin`](https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/package/edge/community/x86_64/jellyfin) and |
| 16 | +[`jellyfin-web`](https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/package/edge/community/x86_64/jellyfin-web). |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +To enable the web UI after installing `jellyfin-web`, make sure to remove the `--nowebclient` option from |
| 19 | +`/etc/conf.d/jellyfin`. |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +## Arch Linux |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +The `Extra` repository contains builds for both [`jellyfin-server`](https://archlinux.org/packages/?name=jellyfin-server) and [`jellyfin-web`](https://archlinux.org/packages/?name=jellyfin-web). |
| 24 | +`jellyfin-server` includes a hard dependency on [`jellyfin-ffmpeg`](https://archlinux.org/packages/?name=jellyfin-ffmpeg). |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +Both packages, server and web, can also be built from source at the tip of the master branch using [`jellyfin-git`](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/jellyfin-git/). |
| 27 | +The AUR also offers each separately at [`jellyfin-server-git`](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/jellyfin-server-git/) and [`jellyfin-web-git`](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/jellyfin-web-git/). |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +## Fedora, CentOS and other RPM distributions |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +Builds in RPM package format are provided by RPM Fusion. Official packages are no longer provided starting with 10.9. |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +### RPM Fusion |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +1. `rpmfusion` must be enabled first |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | + ```sh |
| 38 | + sudo dnf install https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm |
| 39 | + ``` |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +2. Install the `jellyfin` package, which will automatically install `jellyfin-server`, `jellyfin-web` and `jellyfin-firewalld` |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | + ```sh |
| 44 | + sudo dnf install jellyfin |
| 45 | + ``` |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +3. Enable and start the Jellyfin service: |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | + ```sh |
| 50 | + sudo systemctl enable --now jellyfin |
| 51 | + ``` |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +### Manual installation via the .rpm packages |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +1. You will need to enable `rpmfusion`, as `ffmpeg` is a dependency of the `jellyfin` server package |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | + ```sh |
| 58 | + sudo dnf install https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm |
| 59 | + ``` |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | + :::note |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | + You do not need to manually install `ffmpeg`; it will be installed by the Jellyfin server package as a dependency. |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | + ::: |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +2. Install the Jellyfin server |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | + ```sh |
| 70 | + sudo dnf install <link to server `.rpm` file URL> |
| 71 | + ``` |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +3. Install the Jellyfin web interface |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | + ```sh |
| 76 | + sudo dnf install <link to web `.rpm` file URL> |
| 77 | + ``` |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +4. Enable and start the Jellyfin service: |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | + ```sh |
| 82 | + sudo systemctl enable --now jellyfin |
| 83 | + ``` |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +5. Allow Jellyfin through the firewall: |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | + ```sh |
| 88 | + sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=jellyfin |
| 89 | + ``` |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | + :::note |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | + This will open the following ports: |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | + - `8096 TCP`, used by default for HTTP traffic; you can change this in the dashboard |
| 96 | + - `8920 TCP`, used by default for HTTPS traffic; you can change this in the dashboard |
| 97 | + - `1900 UDP`, used for service auto-discovery; this is not configurable |
| 98 | + - `7359 UDP`, used for auto-discovery; this is not configurable |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | + ::: |
| 101 | + |
| 102 | +6. Reload the firewall to apply the new rules: |
| 103 | + |
| 104 | + ```sh |
| 105 | + sudo firewall-cmd --reload |
| 106 | + ``` |
| 107 | + |
| 108 | +7. Go to `localhost:8096` or `ip-address-of-jellyfin-server:8096` to finish setup in the web UI. |
| 109 | + |
| 110 | +## Gentoo |
| 111 | + |
| 112 | +The Gentoo ebuild repository includes the Jellyfin package which can be installed like other software: |
| 113 | + |
| 114 | +```sh |
| 115 | +emerge www-apps/jellyfin |
| 116 | +``` |
| 117 | + |
| 118 | +## NixOS |
| 119 | + |
| 120 | +NixOS has a [module for Jellyfin](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/nixos/modules/services/misc/jellyfin.nix), |
| 121 | +it can be enabled as follows: |
| 122 | + |
| 123 | +```nix |
| 124 | +{ |
| 125 | + services.jellyfin.enable = true; |
| 126 | +} |
| 127 | +``` |
| 128 | + |
| 129 | +For more information, refer to the [NixOS wiki](https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Jellyfin). |
| 130 | + |
| 131 | +## Flatpak |
| 132 | + |
| 133 | +The Jellyfin Server package is available on [Flathub](https://flathub.org/apps/org.jellyfin.JellyfinServer). |
| 134 | + |
| 135 | +This package is provided for convenience only, and may be deprecated at any time. It is not recommended as [Flatpak themselves don't recommend the use of Flatpak for server applications](https://flatpak.org/faq/#Can_Flatpak_be_used_on_servers_too_). Please use [container images](/docs/general/installation/container) instead. |
| 136 | + |
| 137 | +## FreeBSD |
| 138 | + |
| 139 | +A [Third-party Jellyfin build for FreeBSD](https://github.com/Thefrank/jellyfin-server-freebsd) is available. This is not supported by Jellyfin. Please report any issues to them. Issues reported to Jellyfin about this package will be closed without further investigation. |
