Installing Google SDK in Debian 10?


I am following instructions here to install Google Cloud SDK:

echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg] https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt cloud-sdk main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-cloud-sdk.list
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates gnupg
curl https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg | sudo apt-key --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg add -
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install google-cloud-sdk

but in updating APT such that

$ sudo apt update
Hit:1 http://ftp.debian.org/debian unstable InRelease
Hit:2 http://deb.debian.org/debian experimental InRelease

  The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 6A030B21BA07F4FB

N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

and in adding the key

curl https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg | sudo apt-key add -

with Debian version

$ cat /etc/issue
Debian GNU/Linux 10 \n \l

How can I properly install Google Cloud SDK in Debian 10?


Solution

  • PO's Google support manual here is outdated. The new thread here fixed the issue:

    # Add the Cloud SDK distribution URI as a package source
    echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg] http://packages.cloud.google.com/apt cloud-sdk main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-cloud-sdk.list
    
    # Import the Google Cloud Platform public key
    curl https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg | sudo apt-key --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg add -
    
    # Update the package list and install the Cloud SDK
    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install google-cloud-sdk
