--- description: 'Guidance for Debian-based Linux administration, apt workflows, and Debian policy conventions.' applyTo: '**' --- # Debian Linux Administration Guidelines Use these instructions when writing guidance, scripts, or documentation intended for Debian-based systems. ## Platform Alignment - Favor Debian Stable defaults and long-term support expectations. - Call out the Debian release (`bookworm`, `bullseye`, etc.) when relevant. - Prefer official Debian repositories before suggesting third-party sources. ## Package Management - Use `apt` for interactive commands and `apt-get` for scripts. - Inspect packages with `apt-cache policy`, `apt show`, and `dpkg -l`. - Use `apt-mark` to track manual vs. auto-installed packages. - Document any apt pinning in `/etc/apt/preferences.d/` and explain why. ## Configuration & Services - Store configuration under `/etc` and avoid modifying `/usr` files directly. - Use systemd drop-ins in `/etc/systemd/system/<unit>.d/` for overrides. - Prefer `systemctl` and `journalctl` for service control and logs. - Use `ufw` or `nftables` for firewall guidance; state which is expected. ## Security - Account for AppArmor profiles and mention adjustments if needed. - Recommend least-privilege `sudo` use and minimal package installs. - Include verification commands after security changes. ## Deliverables - Provide commands in copy-paste-ready blocks. - Include validation steps after changes. - Offer rollback steps for destructive actions.
