@carlfk, can you elaborate on: > deploy a private key (or similarly sensitive secret) file and a publicly > readable script (apt-add-repository...) and it just runs, no browser, > no user, no typing
for a private ppa, the script will only generate 3 files (e.g. for ppa:ddstreet/private on disco): 1) /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ddstreet-ubuntu-private-disco.list 2) /etc/apt/auth.conf.d/ddstreet_ubuntu_private.conf 3) /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/ddstreet_ubuntu_private.gpg you could just copy those directly to whatever system you want, and not have to run anything at all on the system (besides 'sudo apt update' and then upgrade/install).
