Run the following commands:

  1. Install Outline’s repository key and add the repository.

    wget -qO- https://us-apt.pkg.dev/doc/repo-signing-key.gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/gcloud-artifact-registry-us.gpg

    echo "deb [arch=amd64] https://us-apt.pkg.dev/projects/jigsaw-outline-apps outline-client main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/outline-client.list

  2. Update the apt package list and install the latest version of Outline Client.

    sudo apt update
