Thanks.
I could not use your command from a normal user as redirection > is not run as root (sudo applies only to echo command). One solution is to use tee:

echo -e 'Package: qelectrotech* \nPin: version 0.100.* \nPin-Priority: 1001' | sudo tee /etc/apt/preferences.d/40qelectrotech-devel > /dev/null

Thanks for all,
Josep

Yes Josep you are right I removed i386 arch and now you need to add Architectures: amd64 in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/qelectrotech.sources

2) use pinning to force 0.100-dev versions:

sudo echo -e 'Package: qelectrotech* \nPin: version 0.100.* \nPin-Priority: 1001' > /etc/apt/preferences.d/40qelectrotech-devel

Thank you very much. I could install new version by downloading the asc key and creating the sources file BUT, related to the repository configuration file, two points:

1) My system is Debian stable, multiarchitecture and sudo apt update complained about missing i386 architecture in qelectrotech repository. The solution to that is adding a line with just the Architectures directive:

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/qelectrotech.sources
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

# draw electric diagrams with QElectroTech
#
Types:      deb
Architectures: amd64
URIs:       https://debian.qelectrotech.org/qet/builds/debian/
Suites:     stable
Components: main
Enabled:    yes
Signed-By:  /etc/apt/keyrings/Qelectrotech_Repository.asc
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

2) Debian (bullseye) stable (and also backports) have version numbers higher than the reported by qelectrotech deb packages at debian.qelectrotech.org (debian versions are 1:0.9-1 and 1:0.9-1~bpo11+1). To be able to install latest version, I've had to uninstall Debian version and force installation of 0.100.0.r8447-2.

Regards and thanks for your time,
Josep

BTW, Pysimplegui and qet_tb_generator were rebuilt for the new keyfile and uploaded back into the QET Debian stable and unstable repositories.

System:
  Kernel: 6.12.12+bpo-amd64 arch: x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 12.2.0
  Desktop: Cinnamon v: 5.6.8 tk: GTK v: 3.24.38 wm: Muffin dm: LightDM Distro: Debian GNU/Linux
    12 (bookworm)

  Active apt repos in: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/qelectrotech.list
    1: deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/Qelectrotech_Repository.asc] https: //debian.qelectrotech.org/qet/builds/debian stable main

I get this now: NO_PUBKEY B8D8B0B00ADD2851

(debian stable repo)
Thanks.

apt-key is not available in Debian unstable anymore!

For a few days now, this is the way to go:

• download key-file:
  wget -q https://debian.qelectrotech.org/qet/bui … sitory.asc
  and save (as root) to /etc/apt/keyrings

• adjust sources-list entry for QElectroTech
  file needs the ending ".sources" as in this example:
  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/qelectrotech.sources

• content of qelectrotech.sources:

# draw electric diagrams with QElectroTech
# 
Types:      deb
URIs:       https://debian.qelectrotech.org/qet/builds/debian/
Suites:     unstable
Components: main
Enabled:    yes
Signed-By:  /etc/apt/keyrings/Qelectrotech_Repository.asc

• from here everything further is known:
  apt update
  apt install qelectrotech

@scorpio810:
Maybe you can update the information on QET-Homepage, Laurent?
Thanks in advance!
