Install .NET SDK or .NET Runtime on Ubuntu

This article discusses how to install .NET on Ubuntu.

Install the SDK (which includes the runtime) if you want to develop .NET apps. Or, if you only need to run apps, install the Runtime. If you're installing the Runtime, we suggest you install the ASP.NET Core Runtime as it includes both .NET and ASP.NET Core runtimes.

Use the dotnet --list-sdks and dotnet --list-runtimes commands to see which versions are installed. For more information, see How to check that .NET is already installed.

Important

Using a package manager to install .NET from the Microsoft package feed only supports the x64 architecture. Other architectures, such as Arm, aren't supported by the Microsoft package feed. Use the Ubuntu feeds or manually install .NET. Be cautious of package mix up problems when using multiple feeds. For more information, see .NET package mix ups on Linux.

For more information on installing .NET without a package manager, see one of the following articles:

Ubuntu 24.10

.NET is available in the Ubuntu package manager feeds. The Microsoft package repository no longer contains .NET packages for Ubuntu.

The following versions of .NET are supported or available for Ubuntu 24.10:

  • 9.0
  • 8.0

Important

.NET 9 is currently in preview.

When an Ubuntu version falls out of support, .NET is no longer supported with that version.

Install the SDK

The .NET SDK allows you to develop apps with .NET. If you install the .NET SDK, you don't need to install the corresponding runtime. To install the .NET SDK, run the following commands:

sudo apt-get update && \
  sudo apt-get install -y dotnet-sdk-9.0

To learn how to use the .NET CLI, see .NET CLI overview.

Install the runtime

The ASP.NET Core Runtime allows you to run apps that were made with .NET that didn't provide the runtime. The following commands install the ASP.NET Core Runtime, which is the most compatible runtime for .NET. In your terminal, run the following commands:

sudo apt-get update && \
  sudo apt-get install -y aspnetcore-runtime-9.0

As an alternative to the ASP.NET Core Runtime, you can install the .NET Runtime, which doesn't include ASP.NET Core support: replace aspnetcore-runtime-9.0 in the previous command with dotnet-runtime-9.0:

sudo apt-get install -y dotnet-runtime-9.0

To learn how to use the .NET CLI, see .NET CLI overview.

Dependencies

When you install with a package manager, these libraries are installed for you. But, if you manually install .NET or you publish a self-contained app, you'll need to make sure these libraries are installed:

  • ca-certificates
  • libc6
  • libgcc-s1
  • libicu74
  • liblttng-ust1
  • libssl3
  • libstdc++6
  • libunwind8
  • zlib1g

Dependencies can be installed with the apt install command. The following snippet demonstrates installing the zlib1g library:

sudo apt install zlib1g

If the .NET app uses the System.Drawing.Common assembly, libgdiplus will also need to be installed. Because System.Drawing.Common is no longer supported on Linux, this only works on .NET 6 and requires setting the System.Drawing.EnableUnixSupport runtime configuration switch.

You can install a recent version of libgdiplus by adding the Mono repository to your system.

Ubuntu 24.04

.NET is available in the Ubuntu package manager feeds, as well as the Microsoft package repository. However, you should only use one or the other to install .NET. Microsoft recommends that you use the Ubuntu package manager feeds. If you want to use the Microsoft package repository, see How to register the Microsoft package repository.

The following versions of .NET are supported or available for Ubuntu 24.04:

Supported .NET versions Available in
built-in Ubuntu feed
Available in
backports
Ubuntu feed
Available in
Microsoft feed
8.0, 6.0 8.0 7.0, 6.0 None

When an Ubuntu version falls out of support, .NET is no longer supported with that version.

Not available.

Important

If you're using .NET 8 SDK and Ubuntu 22.04, understand that SDK versions offered by Canonical are always in the .1xx feature band. If you want to use a newer feature band release, use the Microsoft feed to install the SDK. Make sure you review the information in the .NET package mix ups on Linux article to understand the implications of switching between repository feeds.

When an Ubuntu version falls out of support, .NET is no longer supported with that version.

Not available.

Add the Microsoft package repository

Installing with APT can be done with a few commands. Before you install .NET, run the following commands to add the Microsoft package signing key to your list of trusted keys and add the package repository.

Open a terminal and run the following commands:

wget https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/20.04/packages-microsoft-prod.deb -O packages-microsoft-prod.deb
sudo dpkg -i packages-microsoft-prod.deb
rm packages-microsoft-prod.deb

Not available.

Unsupported versions

The following versions of .NET are ❌ no longer supported:

  • .NET 7
  • .NET 6 (Starting November 12, 2024)
  • .NET 5
  • .NET Core 3.1
  • .NET Core 3.0
  • .NET Core 2.2
  • .NET Core 2.1
  • .NET Core 2.0

How to install other versions

.NET package names are standardized across all Linux distributions. The following table lists the packages:

All versions of .NET are available for download at https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet, but require manual installation. You can try to use the package manager to install a different version of .NET. However, the requested version might not be available.

The packages added to package manager feeds are named in a hackable format, for example: {product}-{type}-{version}.

  • product
    The type of .NET product to install. Valid options are:

    • dotnet
    • aspnetcore
  • type
    Chooses the SDK or the runtime. Valid options are:

    • sdk (only available for the dotnet product)
    • runtime
  • version
    The version of the SDK or runtime to install. Valid options are any released version, such as:

    • 8.0
    • 6.0
    • 3.1
    • 2.1

    It's possible the SDK/runtime you're trying to download isn't available for your Linux distribution. For a list of supported distributions, see Install .NET on Linux.

Examples

  • Install the ASP.NET Core 8.0 runtime: aspnetcore-runtime-8.0
  • Install the .NET Core 2.1 runtime: dotnet-runtime-2.1
  • Install the .NET 5 SDK: dotnet-sdk-5.0
  • Install the .NET Core 3.1 SDK: dotnet-sdk-3.1

Note

Some package might not be available on your Linux distribution.

Package missing

If the package-version combination doesn't work, it's not available. For example, there isn't an ASP.NET Core SDK. The SDK components for ASP.NET Core are included with the .NET SDK. The value aspnetcore-sdk-8.0 is incorrect and should be dotnet-sdk-8.0. For a list of Linux distributions supported by .NET, see .NET dependencies and requirements.

Manual install

If your Ubuntu version isn't supported, you most likely need to install .NET by manually extracting the binaries, by using the install script. For more information, see Install .NET on Linux without using a package manager.
