The following bug has been logged on the website: Bug reference: 17699 Logged by: Dirk Heinrichs Email address: dheinric@opentext.com PostgreSQL version: 11.0 Operating system: Debian / Ubuntu Description: Hi, the installation instructions for Debian / Ubuntu describe a deprecated method for fetching and storing the repository key. The "apt-key" utility has been deprecated by Debian and Debian Bookworm (testing), as well as Ubuntu 22.04 (current LTS) will emit annoying warnings about keys stored in /etc/apt/trusted.gpg on each "apt-get update". Please change instructions to follow https://wiki.debian.org/DebianRepository/UseThirdParty and store the keyring in "/usr/share/keyrings" (since it is also managed by the "pgdg-keyring" package) for Debian versions >= Stretch (and their corresponding Ubuntu versions). This also affects the "pgdg-keyring" package, which stores the keyring in "/usr/share/postgresql-common/pgdg" instead of "/usr/share/keyrings", so this should also be fixed. Thanks in advance... Dirk
