Hi. The command on the main liquorix page doesn't work for Debian Sid. I think Apt no longer allows unverified repositories. The repositories are there, but they don't get loaded on an update.

So I got it here:

liquorix.net/debian/pool/main/l/liquorix-keyring/

When it installed it it gave me the "warning" that apt-key should not be called inside scripts. But after apt update Liquorix did show up.

This is on a brand new Debian Sid install.

Another interesting thing is that sudo is not installed by default. So using Synaptic or the console is the only way to install packages until you install sudo. Perhaps the intent is to encourage best practices? I'm no expert, so I don't know what they are...

It's fair to say that Debian is assuming their users are competent enough to use the command line. So su to root is kind of the most elementary level you can get running Debian. Ergo, no need to have sudo installed by default.
