 +**Additional Notes for Users of Ubuntu 20+ and Debian 11+**
 +
 +On Debian-based operating systems, the ''apt-key add'' feature was deprecated, and you might see the following message in the first step:
 +<code>
 +$ wget -qO - https://packages.irods.org/irods-signing-key.asc | sudo apt-key add -
 +Warning: apt-key is deprecated. Manage keyring files in trusted.gpg.d instead (see apt-key(8)).
 +OK
 +</code>
 +
 +As of now, the warning can be still ignored and the steps can be performed as described, but in the longer term it is highly advisable to add the repository signing key in another manner as described, for example, [[https://www.linuxuprising.com/2021/01/apt-key-is-deprecated-how-to-add.html|here]]. As of now, iRODS has not yet decided on the best way to handle this in the case of the iRODS package repository, and this information will be updated accordingly in the future.
