* ci(packaging): publish signed apt repository to etherpad.org/apt (closes #7610) Adds an `apt-publish` workflow job that turns the existing `.deb` build artefacts into a signed apt repository hosted at: https://etherpad.org/apt/ End-user install on any Debian/Ubuntu/Mint: curl -fsSL https://etherpad.org/key.asc \ | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/etherpad.gpg echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/etherpad.gpg] \ https://etherpad.org/apt stable main" \ | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/etherpad.list sudo apt update && sudo apt install etherpad `apt upgrade` works going forward — every tagged release republishes the repo metadata. Change type: patch (CI/distribution; no production behaviour change). ## Why etherpad.org/apt and not ether.github.io/etherpad/apt ether/etherpad's GitHub Pages is already configured as build-from-workflow on `develop` with CNAME `docs.etherpad.org`, and a repo can only have one Pages source. Pushing the apt repo to a gh-pages branch would either be ignored (Pages is reading from the docs workflow) or, if Pages were switched to it, would kill the docs site. ether/ether.github.com is a separate Next.js site that already deploys etherpad.org and serves `public/` verbatim, so cross-pushing the apt repo into `public/apt/` lands it at the canonical Etherpad URL with no infrastructure conflicts. ## What this PR ships 1. `apt-publish` job in `.github/workflows/deb-package.yml`. Runs after `release` on `v*` tag pushes: - Clones ether/ether.github.com over SSH using a deploy key. - Wipes site/public/apt/ and rebuilds it from the per-arch .deb artefacts using apt-ftparchive. - Signs Release + emits InRelease/Release.gpg using the keypair in APT_SIGNING_KEY. - Drops key.asc into site/public/key.asc. - Asserts both per-arch .debs are present before the wipe takes effect — refuses to publish a partial / empty repo if an artefact is missing or renamed. - Commits and pushes to master; the site repo's existing build pipeline picks it up. 2. `packaging/apt/key.asc` — Etherpad APT Repository public key, fingerprint 6953FA0C6431F30347D65B03AF0CD687D51A6E63. Served at https://etherpad.org/key.asc after the next release. 3. `packaging/apt/generate-signing-key.sh` — one-shot helper that generated the keypair, kept for documented future rotation. 4. `packaging/README.md` — apt-repo install recipe is now the recommended path. ## Required secrets before the next tagged release Two secrets on ether/etherpad before the next `v*` tag push: - APT_SIGNING_KEY — ASCII-armoured private key for the Etherpad APT Repository keypair (long key id AF0CD687D51A6E63), generated with packaging/apt/generate-signing-key.sh. - SITE_DEPLOY_KEY — SSH private key. The public half registered as a deploy key with WRITE access on ether/ether.github.com. If either is missing the job fails fast with a clear error. ## What this PR does not change - The release job still attaches both versioned (etherpad_<v>_<arch>.deb) and stable-aliased (etherpad-latest_<arch>.deb) artefacts to the GitHub Release. Anyone pulling from releases/latest/download/etherpad-latest_amd64.deb keeps working. - The build-job smoke test (start under systemd, /health, purge) is unchanged. - docs.etherpad.org is untouched; this PR never pushes to gh-pages.

The dists/${SUITE}/Release heredoc was indented with the workflow's YAML scope, which means the resulting file had 10-space-prefixed field lines (` Origin: Etherpad`). apt parsers reject any leading whitespace on header fields per RFC 822 / Debian control format, so the entire suite would have failed to parse on `apt update` even before checksums were appended. Replace the heredoc with `printf '%s\n' ...` so the indentation is entirely under workflow control and impossible to break with a future YAML re-indent. 2. Tighten the artefact glob from `etherpad_*_amd64.deb` to `etherpad_[0-9]*_amd64.deb`. The hyphen-separator distinction (etherpad_<v>_… vs etherpad-latest_…) already kept the alias out of the array — Qodo's analysis of a duplicate-Packages bug was incorrect. But pinning to a leading-digit version segment makes the contract explicit and defends against any future alias that accidentally lands on `dist/etherpad_<word>_<arch>.deb`.
