APT Install of deb.torproject.org-keyring fails on Raspberry Pi 5 running Bookworm

Hi,

I’m trying to install

deb.torproject.org-keyring

via the package manager on a raspberry pi 5 (arm64) adhering to the steps from Why and how I can enable Tor Package Repository in Debian? | Tor Project | Support.

Tor installs fine, but just not the tor keyring.

I get this error messages:

Running sudo apt update:

Any help is very much appreciated!

I believe it’s related to this issue: Issues with Ubuntu packages on deb.torproject.org and its Onion Service | Tor Project status

Alright. Thanks. Let’s see if they’ll fix it in a day or so.

Surprisingly, it may be that they have permanently removed all packages related to the arm64 architecture (Raspberry Pi and other SBC) from the deb.tpo repository and will not include them again in the fix to this issue that is expected to arrive soon…

See this comment:

If they don’t solve it in conjunction, I will open another issue to address this big damage, which is that the most popular SBC architecture (Raspberry Pi) cannot be left without official support from the Tor project :confused:

Resolved: Issues with Ubuntu packages on deb.torproject.org and its Onion Service | Tor Project status

apt update is running as expected, but deb.torproject.org-keyring can still not be installed.

E: Unable to locate package deb.torproject.org-keyring
E: Couldn't find any package by glob 'deb.torproject.org-keyring'

@twofaktor the issue does not seem to have been fully resolved as the deb.torproject.org-keyring package is still missing from the https://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/dists/bookworm/main/binary-arm64/Packages directory. It is present in the binary-amd64/Packages dir.

Thank you for your notice :pray: , I reopened the issue and started a new thread to address this. See the link attached to this comment: ~> APT Install of deb.torproject.org-keyring fails on Raspberry Pi 5 running Bookworm - #4 by twofaktor

At the end of the conversation thread there is another new thread, I have been shadowbanned from being able to post links here to that project :confused:
