If you’ve been with playit for awhile you may have installed the playit agent using our old script. The method we used is no longer best practice and you’ll likely get a warning about playit whenever you run apt-get update.
You can fix this by these commands
sudo apt-key del '16AC CC32 BD41 5DCC 6F00 D548 DA6C D75E C283 9680'
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playit-cloud.list
sudo apt update
curl -SsL https://playit-cloud.github.io/ppa/key.gpg | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/playit.gpg >/dev/null
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/playit.gpg] https://playit-cloud.github.io/ppa/data ./" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playit-cloud.list
sudo apt update
The commands explained
sudo apt-key del '16AC CC32 BD41 5DCC 6F00 D548 DA6C D75E C283 9680'
This comamnd will remove playit’s signing key from your general apt repository trust. If a key is in your general apt repository trust, your computer will accept any package signed by us. That’s not a good thing so it’s good idea to remove our key.
If you want to see the other keys your system has under it’s general trust you can run apt-key list. The keys under /etc/apt/trusted.gpg can sign any package. Ideally you’d only have the key from your OS’s default repository.
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playit-cloud.list
This command removes our old details on where you can find our packages. Removing this just makes things easier to have a simple update
sudo apt update
This updates your repository index and gives us a clean slate to add back our repository using a better method
curl -SsL https://playit-cloud.github.io/ppa/key.gpg | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/playit.gpg >/dev/null
This downloads the key we use to sign our packages and adds it to a new file we’ll reference later.
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/playit.gpg] https://playit-cloud.github.io/ppa/data ./" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playit-cloud.list
This command tells your computer where to find our packages and what key they must be signed with for authentication. We downloaded the key in the previous command.
