Development Notes about Kicksecure APT Repository.

Location

• https://deb.kicksecure.com
• http://deb.w5j6stm77zs6652pgsij4awcjeel3eco7kvipheu6mtr623eyyehj4yd.onion

User Documentation

Reasons for using mv instead of cp:

• higher transparency
• file /usr/share/keysrings/derivative.asc is owned by the repository-dist package and overwritten by this file
  • easier to debug: Should there be an issue with /usr/share/keysrings/derivative.asc (such as key expired) then it would be easier for the user to check which version of the key has been originally imported
