Research direction

Start by reproducing the listed add-apt-repository, apt-key, apt-get update, and apt-get install commands on Debian GNU/Linux 12. Check whether the configured repository publishes blockstream-satellite for that distribution; done means the documented installation succeeds or the instructions clearly identify the supported package source.

Description

I'm trying to install blockstream satellite on a Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) using the following commands, according to your instructions:

sudo add-apt-repository https://aptly.blockstream.com/satellite/debian/

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com
--recv-keys 87D07253F69E4CD8629B0A21A94A007EC9D4458C

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install blockstream-satellite

After the last command, I get the response that blockstream-satellite is not found.
