The current installation instructions mention `/usr/share/keyrings` as the location to copy the apt key files to, but according to the sources.list and apt-key manpages, the correct location for manually installed keys would be `/etc/apt/keyrings`. This PR changes the instructions to point to that location instead. From the sources.list manpage: > The recommended locations for keyrings are /usr/share/keyrings for keyrings managed by packages, and /etc/apt/keyrings for keyrings managed by the system operator. From the apt-key manpage: > FILES > /etc/apt/trusted.gpg > Keyring of local trusted keys, new keys will be added here. Configuration Item: Dir::Etc::Trusted. > > /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/ > File fragments for the trusted keys, additional keyrings can be stored here (by other packages or the administrator). Configuration Item Dir::Etc::TrustedParts. > > /etc/apt/keyrings/ > Place to store additional keyrings to be used with Signed-By.

@williammartin, no, I don't know them, it was just a coincidence 😅 Also, apologies for the duplicate PR. I did search to see if there was something already but I didn't see #8693. Feel free to close this one, if you prefer to do it all in one go with the other one. |

That's so funny. Alright I think I'll close this one then, thank you for basically doing a review of this part of the other PR on my behalf 😅 |

Glad I could help 😂 |
