I remember seeing an article at one time on how to do this, but now I can't find it. I have seen other install directions. I want to make sure I can easily update it via apt.

There is no Debian mod_pagespeed
package yet, it seems to be quite a difficult feat.
That said, Google apparently provides 32bit and 64bit .deb
archives via developers.google.com
, which you can install with, say,
# dpkg -i mod-pagespeed-beta_current_amd64.deb
but which are not supported by the Debian project.
However, Google does seem to provide an apt
repository,(1) and installing the binary mentioned above adds this line to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mod-pagespeed.list
, which probably gets you updates via apt
and the like:
deb http://dl.google.com/linux/mod-pagespeed/deb/ stable main
(1) I couldn't find any official mention of this repository (only this German (sorry!) blog post), so I would not count on it. But anyway, third-party deb
s and repos are always to be taken with a pinch of salt.

They also import their key as part of the post install script. You can unpack the deb and get the key out of it. Without adding the key, the packages will throw signing warnings.– chmacMay 4, 2015 at 16:52
Going off of sr_'s answer, here's how to do it in a shell.
Warning: The filename in the second line is not /etc/apt/sources.list
. Please scroll to the right if it's cut off.
sudo -i
echo 'deb http://dl.google.com/linux/mod-pagespeed/deb/ stable main'> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mod-pagespeed.list
apt-get update
apt-get install mod-pagespeed-stable
exit
There's also a mod-pagespeed-beta
, if you'd like to live on the edge.
