Azure-cli: Repository update to include release for Debian 10 (Buster)

[davivcgarcia]

Debian 10 (Buster) was officially released on July 6th (https://www.debian.org/News/2019/20190706), and it is the current stable release for the distribution. There isn't a compatible repository at https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/azure-cli/dists/ yet.

I'm moving to a new team after this week, but we should definitely start publishing for buster.

Any ETA about when support for buster would be introduced?

I switched to a manual installation and use bionic - works well (Debian Testing user)

The Microsoft Docs say to use stretch for Debian, bionic for Ubuntu. I used stretch on a Raspberry Pi 4 with buster, and got:
/usr/bin/az: line 2: /opt/az/bin/python3: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
Do we still need Buster support?

The Microsoft Docs say that Buster is not supported and having to rely on the Troubleshooting section to install Azure CLI on (as far as I understand your post) any upcoming release of Debian and Ubuntu is just bad.

Yes, we need Buster support.

And concerning the Raspberry Pi: It doesn't seem that arm-linux is supported.

If you are running a distribution that comes with apt, such as Ubuntu or Debian, there's an x86_64 package available for the Azure CLI.

We are working on Buster support currently. @zikalino will update this issue once it is released.

@zikalino is working on this issue and will give update by next week.

Just ran into this, so looking forward to the release. Thanks @zikalino !

I'm also eagerly awaiting this! =D

[zikalino]

just adding buster package to our pipeline: https://github.com/Azure/azure-cli/pull/10517
we should be able to include in next week's release if nothing goes wrong.

I'm using the binaries for Debian Stretch on Debian Buster and ... "it works".
However, I don't remember if I had troubles when I've first installed it.
