Ensure that the latest packages are installed and the system has been booted with the latest stable kernel, as <b>DKMS</b> will request the latest one available from the Debian repositories.
<!--T:40-->
<pre>
root@debian10:~# apt-get update && apt-get -y dist-upgrade && reboot
</pre>
<!--T:41-->
After a successful reboot, the system should have the latest available kernel running and the repository can be installed, by installing the <code>arbutus-cloud-repo</code> package.
This package also contains the gpg key all packages are signed with.

<pre>
root@debian10:~# apt-get -y install gnupg
root@debian10:~# wget http://repo.arbutus.cloud.computecanada.ca/pulp/deb/debian/pool/main/arbutus-cloud-repo_0.3_all.deb
root@debian10:~# dpkg -i arbutus-cloud-repo_0.3_all.deb
