Package managers
Snap
Snap is a free and open-source package manager for Linux. Available for most distributions, snap packages are simple to install and are automatically updated.
The Hugo snap package is strictly confined. Strictly confined snaps run in complete isolation, up to a minimal access level that’s deemed always safe. The sites you create and build must be located within your home directory, or on removable media.
This will install the extended edition of Hugo:
sudo snap install hugo
To enable or revoke access to removable media:
sudo snap connect hugo:removable-media
sudo snap disconnect hugo:removable-media
To enable or revoke access to SSH keys:
sudo snap connect hugo:ssh-keys
sudo snap disconnect hugo:ssh-keys
