Solution to apt-key depreciation
Michael, Sounds great! If it's any help, I put my solution in a bash script: #!/bin/bash KEY=/usr/local/share/keyrings/marutter.key if [ -f "$KEY" ]; then echo "$KEY already exists" sudo apt install -y r-base else wget -q -O marutter.key "https://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xe298a3a825c0d65dfd57cbb651716619e084dab9" if ! file marutter.key | grep -q "PGP public key"; then echo "marutter.key does not appear to be a valid PGP key - aborting!" exit 1 else sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/share/keyrings/ sudo mv marutter.key /usr/local/share/keyrings/ echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/local/share/keyrings/marutter.key] https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu groovy-cran40/" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list fi sudo apt install -y r-base fi Nothing fancy by any means, but it works and could perhaps be useful.

Hi everyone, Since apt-key will be deprecated in future releases of Debian (https://manpages.debian.org/testing/apt/apt-key.8.en.html), I recently got around to figuring out how to properly import Michael Rutter's key, based on this answer over at askubuntu: https://askubuntu.com/a/1307181. Perhaps something along those lines should be added to the README at https://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/fullREADME.html? Cheers, Carl
Carl, Thank you. I need to read these posts over to see if the instructions can be condensed, but this is very helpful. Michael
