The first thing we'll do is install via APT - this likely won't install the latest version, but will at least install dependencies so we can install the latest version from GitHub.
Enable the contrib component in /etc/apt/sources.list by adding "contrib" to the end of every "deb" line.
vim /etc/apt/sources.listShould end up looking something like this:
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye main contrib
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye main contrib
deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main contrib
deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main contrib
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye-updates main contrib
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ bullseye-updates main contribInstall SABnzbdPlus
apt update
apt install sabnzbdplusYou will likely receive errors from APT saying unrar and several other pieces of software must be installed but cannot.
Download unrar from rarlab.com
wget https://www.rarlab.com/rar/unrar_5.2.5-0.1_amd64.debInstall unrar
dpkg -i unrar*Try to install again
apt install sabnzbdplusNavigate to /opt/ and install the latest version from GitHub
cd /opt/
git clone https://github.com/sabnzbd/sabnzbd.gitMove into the new sabnzbd directory and checkout the master version
git checkout masterChange file ownership to the media user
chown -R media:media /opt/sabnzbd/Install Python Pip (if not already installed)
apt install python3-pipUse Python Pip to install dependencies defined in /opt/sabnzbd/requirements.txt
python3 -m pip install -r /opt/sabnzbd/requirements.txt -UTo update, go into the sabnzbd git directory, and type:

systemctl start sabnzbd.serviceSABnzbd is only accessible via localhost after installation. If you are remote to the server, setup an SSH tunnel to gain access.
This is forward port 8080 of your client machine over SSH to port 8080 of ‘localhost’, which is the server itself.
ssh ross@10.20.30.40 -L 8080:localhost:8080In your browser, navigate to http://localhost:8080
