Request for documentation about apt-get and newer yarn versions

[DcsMarionDickten]

The page https://classic.yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/install/#debian-stable lists apt-get as an installation method for "Yarn classic". This installation method only works up to Debian 11 since apt-key add is not included in newer versions.

Could you update this information (if it is part of what you do) for (1) more modern Debian/Ubuntus and (2) newer yarn versions? Up to now I get the impression it's not possible at all to install modern yarn with apt-get.

Well classic has been in maintenance mode for 5 years now. That said, there is a PR yarnpkg/website#1163 to update that, but I don't have merge rights there so I can't help.

For Yarn Modern, the recommended installation method is via Corepack, which currently is bundled with Node
