kicksecure-16Template.
1. Add the Waydroid OpenPGP key the system APT keyring.
Securely download the key.
If you are using Kicksecure ™ (kicksecure), run.
scurl https://repo.waydro.id/waydroid.gpg --output waydroid.gpg
If you are using a Qubes Template (kicksecure-16), run. [1] [2]
scurl --proxy http://127.0.0.1:8082/ https://repo.waydro.id/waydroid.gpg --output waydroid.gpg
Display the key's fingerprint. [3]
gpg --keyid-format long --import --import-options show-only --with-fingerprint waydroid.gpg
Verify the output.
Digital signatures can increase security but this requires knowledge. Learn more about digital software signature verification.
The most important check is confirming the key fingerprint exactly matches the output below. [4]
Key fingerprint = 0D27 43A2 4328 AE06 34DF 3557 959F E34E 90E5 1522
Warning:
Do not continue if the fingerprint does not match -- this risks using infected or erroneous files! The whole point of verification is to confirm file integrity.
Copy the signing key to the APT keyring folder. [5]
sudo cp waydroid.gpg /usr/share/keyrings/waydroid.gpg
2. Add the Waydroid third-party APT repository.
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/waydroid.gpg] https://repo.waydro.id/ bullseye main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/waydroid.list
3. Install Waydroid.
Install waydroid. To accomplish that, the following steps A. to D. need to be done.

Using Qubes UpdatesProxy (
--proxy http://127.0.0.1:8082/) because Qubes Templates are non-networked by Qubes default and therefore require UpdatesProxy for connectivity. (APT in Qubes Templates is configured to use UpdatesProxy by Qubes default.)

Even more secure would be to download the key Disposable and then
qvm-copy it to the Qubes Template because this would avoid curl's attack surface but this would also result in even more complicated instructions. - ↑
Even more secure would be to display the key in another Disposable because this would protect the Template from
curl's andgpg's attack surface but this would also result in even more complicated instructions. - ↑ Minor changes in the output such as new uids (email addresses) or newer expiration dates are inconsequential.
