Retroshare downloads

On most GNU/Linux distributions Retroshare is available along with standard packages, so you should check before on your preferred package manager if current RetroShare version is installable from there. If RetroShare is not available on your package manager or the available version is outdated you can find detailed instructions for each distribution we have tested down in this page.

AppImage

If none of the distribution specific options fits your setup you should try AppImage. Take care of selecting the one which match your CPU architecture (use x86_64 if you are unsure). We expect those AppImages to work on most GNU/Linux distributions.

Or look for more RetroShare packages with the following commands:

If you can't find a proper package for your Debian version/architecture or you encounter problems installing or using the packages, we suggests you to try the RetroShare AppImage or Flatpak instead.
