    I'm not sure if PPAs are meant to be used in debian and I guess we should not encourage doing so in the docs.

    NACK. This is very bad practice and will likely result in broken deps, at a minimum.

    Then it should be explicitly stated that the PPA is for Ubuntu only. It is currently very confusing, and the commands work for both Ubuntu and Debian distros.

    Indeed, feel free to update this to just mention that the PPA does not support Debian.
