← mitmproxy overview & all releases
📦 Currently serving: mitmproxy 12.2.3-1~jammy for jammy (updated 2026-10-01), architectures: amd64, arm64. This page is regenerated automatically from the repository metadata, so the version above is exactly what apt install mitmproxy gives you today.

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS “Jammy Jellyfish” is a long-term support release with standard support into 2027. mitmproxy is not shipped at its latest version by the official Ubuntu archives, so this repository builds current upstream releases as native .deb packages targeted specifically at jammy, with dependencies matching what Ubuntu 22.04 LTS actually ships.

And then it keeps doing it. Every new upstream release is packaged and published here within hours, so mitmproxy updates arrive the same way your system updates do, through apt upgrade, unattended-upgrades, or whatever already runs on your machine. No release page to watch, no version to compare, no dpkg -i to remember.

🚀 Install mitmproxy on jammy

Step 1: Add the deb.griffo.io repository

Run the commands
sudo install -d -m 0755 /etc/apt/keyrings
curl -fsSL https://deb.griffo.io/EA0F721D231FDD3A0A17B9AC7808B4DD62C41256.asc | sudo gpg --dearmor --yes -o /etc/apt/keyrings/deb.griffo.io.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/deb.griffo.io.gpg] https://deb.griffo.io/apt jammy main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/deb.griffo.io.list > /dev/null
sudo apt update
install -d -m 0755 /etc/apt/keyrings
curl -fsSL https://deb.griffo.io/EA0F721D231FDD3A0A17B9AC7808B4DD62C41256.asc | gpg --dearmor --yes -o /etc/apt/keyrings/deb.griffo.io.gpg
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/deb.griffo.io.gpg] https://deb.griffo.io/apt jammy main" | tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/deb.griffo.io.list > /dev/null
apt update

🆓 There is an always-free mirror. deb-free.griffo.io serves packages free forever, no account, no subscription, at most 2 months behind upstream, security fixes immediately. It currently carries cliamp, Ghostty, lazydocker, Oh My Posh, Uncloud and Zed; mitmproxy is not one of them, so the repository above is the only way to get it today, ask and it can be enrolled.

How the free mirror works →

The sources line above pins the jammy suite explicitly, so it keeps working in containers and images where lsb_release is unavailable.

Step 2: Install mitmproxy

sudo apt install -y mitmproxy
apt install -y mitmproxy

🔄 Updating

Updates arrive through normal system maintenance, new upstream releases are usually packaged within hours:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade mitmproxy
apt update && apt install --only-upgrade mitmproxy

# optionally remove the repository as well:

❓ Frequently asked questions

Is this an official mitmproxy package?

No, deb.griffo.io is an unofficial repository maintained by Dario Griffo. Packages are built automatically from official upstream mitmproxy releases; the packaging is open source at dariogriffo/mitmproxy-debian.

Why not install mitmproxy from the official Ubuntu archive?

Ubuntu's archive freezes package versions when a release ships and afterwards receives mostly security and stability fixes, so fast-moving tools are either absent or several releases behind. This repository tracks upstream releases instead, with builds targeted at each Ubuntu release.

How quickly do new mitmproxy releases arrive?

The repository polls upstream releases and publishes new builds automatically, typically within hours of an upstream release. Subscribe to the release feed to follow updates.

Which architectures are supported on jammy?

mitmproxy is currently built for: amd64, arm64.
