For those of you that do not know, if you are running Plex on Linux you can add the Plex repository to Ubuntu.

To enable the Plex Media Server repository on Ubuntu only a few terminal commands are required. From a terminal window run the following two commands:

echo deb https://downloads.plex.tv/repo/deb public main | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/plexmediaserver.list
curl https://downloads.plex.tv/plex-keys/PlexSign.key | sudo apt-key add -

After that, it’s just a matter of running the normal sudo apt-get update and the Plex Media Server repo will be enabled on the OS.

Now every time you update your Ubuntu system, Plex gets updated as well. No more manually grabbing the download link and running the upgrade commands.
