Fri, 05 Feb 2021 22:05:47 +0000

Add key

curl https://ftp-master.debian.org/keys/archive-key-10.asc | gpg --import
gpg --export DC30D7C23CBBABEE | apt-key add -

The fingerprint (DC30D7C23CBBABEE) given is the one that the first command outputs, which is the fingerprint of the key downloaded by curl.

2. Add repo

echo "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-backports main" |sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/deb_buster_backports.list

run apt update/upgrade
Install tor, I did this by:

apt-get install -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confold" -y tor

Debian based full updates in one command

I have this small script deployed on any of my #Debian based systems, it just does all the update, upgrade, dist-upgrade, autoremove and autoclean in one run.

#!/bin/sh

if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then
  sudo sh -c "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade && apt-get update && apt-get autoremove && apt-get autoclean"
else
  sudo sh -c "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade && apt-get update && apt-get install $@ && apt-get autoremove && apt-get autoclean"
fi

I have this script deployed in a lazy manner, I just have it sitting in my users home folder and called it “up”, I did do a “chmod +x up” and just start it like this:
