Add Perforce's packaging key to your APT keyring:
wget -qO - https://package.perforce.com/perforce.pubkey | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/perforce.gpg
If you are required to use an older operating system that
does not support this method, you can use:
wget -qO - https://package.perforce.com/perforce.pubkey | sudo apt-key add -If you are required to use an older version of OpenSSL that
does not support TLS v1.2 or later, replace https with http
in the wget command.

repository to your APT configuration. Create a file named /etc/apt/sources.list.d/perforce.list
