Sparky of the testing (rolling) line is based on and uses Debian “testing” packages.
Users of Debian “testing” branch should add Sparky testing and core repositories to get access to Sparky repos:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sparky-testing.list
and paste into the file:
deb https://sparkylinux.org/repo testing main deb-src https://sparkylinux.org/repo testing main deb https://sparkylinux.org/repo core main deb-src https://sparkylinux.org/repo core main
Sparky unstable repository (optional):
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sparky-unstable.list
and paste into the file:
deb https://sparkylinux.org/repo unstable main deb-src https://sparkylinux.org/repo unstable main
Create a preference file:
sudo nano /etc/apt/preferences.d/sparky
and paste into the file:
Package: * Pin: release o=SparkyLinux Pin-Priority: 1001
Otherwise, install 'sparky-apt' and 'sparky6-apt' packages to do so.
Download the Sparky's Public Key as a “deb” package from:
https://sparkylinux.org/repo/pool/main/s/sparky-keyring/
Then install it:
sudo dpkg -i /path/to/sparky-keyring_VERSION_all.deb sudo apt-get update
or get the key manually ('wget2' has to be installed):
wget2 -O - https://sparkylinux.org/repo/sparkylinux.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
