How To Install Debs From GitHub
Raw
debs.md

  1. Find and install iFile from Cydia (free, although you get pop-ups urging you to buy it)

  2. Find a valid .deb (Debian) package (for my projects, go to the Releases tab and hit the big green button)

  3. Tap to open the .deb file (might launch into separate app, or have an Open In... prompt)

  4. Tap "Open With...", and select iFile (normally in the upper right-hand corner)

  5. Once in iFile, tap Installer from the selection sheet that pops up

  6. After the text stops scrolling on the black Installer screen, respring your device

Enjoy!
