I have received an update to one or more packages via ESM.

alan@earth:~$ dpkg -l  | grep esm

For example, libopenexr25:

alan@earth:~$ apt-cache policy libopenexr25
libopenexr25:
  Installed: 2.5.7-1ubuntu0.1~esm1
  Candidate: 2.5.7-1ubuntu0.1~esm1
  Version table:
 *** 2.5.7-1ubuntu0.1~esm1 500
        500 https://esm.ubuntu.com/apps/ubuntu jammy-apps-security/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     2.5.7-1 500
        500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy/universe amd64 Packages

I would like the source for these. I have the source lines in my relavent sources.list files.

alan@earth:~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-esm-*
deb https://esm.ubuntu.com/apps/ubuntu jammy-apps-security main
deb-src https://esm.ubuntu.com/apps/ubuntu jammy-apps-security main

deb https://esm.ubuntu.com/infra/ubuntu jammy-infra-updates main
deb-src https://esm.ubuntu.com/infra/ubuntu jammy-infra-updates main

Yet when I try to download the source, I get a 401 error.

How do I get these source files?

Access is protected by a token stored in a file inside /etc/apt/auth.conf.d. that file is not readable by normal users, so you have to use sudo or otherwise run the download as root, or give your user permission to read that snippet (but not sure yet if the pro client preserves it).

  • sudo chmod a+r /etc/apt/auth.conf.d/90ubuntu-advantage does the trick. So far nothing has complained about it. And I don't think from my perspective that password is particularly valuable.
