    Normally is to provide a link to the Homepage:

    You might want to add the public key for the repository else apt will start calling you names and stating that the repository isn’t trusted.

    gpg –keyserver subkeys.pgp.net –recv A8A515F046D7E7CF

    gpg –export –armor A8A515F046D7E7CF | sudo apt-key add -
