Subject: Debian Repo ...
Have I mentioned how much I vastly dislike Debian?!

I think so .... but anyhoo ...

I can't seem to install this PPA repository.

I'm using a Raspberry Pi 4 with "Raspberry Pi OS" (formerly Raspian) --
which is secretly Debian Bookwork (Ubuntu 22.04 LTS) under the covers.

I'm trying to install Python3.12 and (apparently) it's not included in the
main OS repositories by default, so after a bunch of Googling, I found I
need a 3rd party repo called "Dead Snakes" (*because that sounds
trustworthy*) ... and while the command "apt-add-repository" failed on a
python error, I was able to add the line manually in
"/etc/apt/sources.list.d/deadsnakes.list" --- but then I get an error about
the key missing ...

=====================
--> apt update

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.
===========================

This is the repo URL:
https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/deadsnakes/ppa/ubuntu/dists/jammy/

and on that page, I see a GPG file, which I tried (*probably incorrectly*)
to install:

curl -fsSL
https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/deadsnakes/ppa/ubuntu/dists/jammy/Release.gpg
| gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/deadsnakes.gpg


but then when I do "apt update" I get the error shown above.

This is infinitely easier on RedHat ... just sayin'

Anyhoo -- I appreciate the help on this. I would prefer to not compile
Python from source on a Raspberry Pi, as that takes over an hour to do.

Thanks,
Alex.
