Installation on Linux

Ubuntu 20.04,22.04 and Debian 12, 13 (Testing) (64-bit versions)

(Older versions remain in the repository but they will not be tested anymore)

(SpeechRecorder for Ubuntu below 16.04 will not get updates anymore)

Speechrecorder is available as package in an own Apt repository of Institute of Phonetics and Speech processing Munich. To use Speechrecorder you have to add our Apt repository to your Ubuntu installation.

IPS Apt repository installation

Launch application Terminal.

Please copy this commands in a console and execute.

sudo apt-get install -yq curl
curl -o /tmp/phonetikunimuenchen-repo.deb https://www.phonetik.uni-muenchen.de/Bas/software/repos/phonetikunimuenchen-repo.deb
sudo dpkg -i /tmp/phonetikunimuenchen-repo.deb
sudo apt-get update -yq

First line installs the tool 'curl' to retrieve the repository package.

Second line retrieves Debian package for the IPS APT repository

Third line install this package and adds the IPS APT software repository to the trusted repositories of your system. (It will add the repository source file to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ and installs the trusted public key ring of the IPS repository to /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/)

Fourth line updates your APT system and therefore activates the IPS APT repository on your system.

Speechrecorder installation

If the repository was successfully added, install Spechrecorder:

sudo apt-get install speechrecorder-dist

or without interaction:

sudo apt-get install -yq speechrecorder-dist

Launch Speechrecorder

Click on the Dash and search for "Speechrecorder"

or launch Terminal and type

speechrecorder

Update SpeechRecorder

Speechrecorder will be updated by APT same as all other packages on your system.

Manual update (same as installation):

sudo apt-get install -yq speechrecorder-dist

Reinstallation after Ubuntu distribution upgrade

Unfortunately Ubuntu disables third party repositories before upgrade.

Reenable the IPS Apt repository in the Ubuntu software control center or add the repository again.

Speechrecorder deinstallation

sudo apt-get remove speechrecorder-dist speechrecorder

And to remove orphaned packages (Note: This will remove all orphaned packages on your system, not just those dependent on the speechrecorder-dist package)

apt-get autoremove

IPS Apt repository deinstallation

Please note: In the current version this will uninstall SpeechRecorder as well (package speechrecorder-dist depends on phonetikunimuenchen-repo).

sudo apt-get purge phonetikunimuenchen-repo
sudo apt-get update -yq

IPS Apt repository deinstallation (older version)

sudo apt-key remove E092DDB6
sudo test -f /etc/apt/sources.list.d/phonetik_uni-muenchen_de*.list && sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/phonetik_uni-muenchen_de*.list
sudo apt-get update -yq
