How to add PPA with add-apt-repository in debian

 Getting add-apt-repository on your Debian (debian Squeeze , mint Flavoured)

At this point the work that this script performs is:

1. add the repository of the ppa. (here i am using lucid as the distribution of choice, coz i am using squeeze as my debian version)
2. add the gpg key to the keyring.

Steps to install this.

1. Download file

$ wget http://blog.anantshri.info/content/uploads/2010/09/add-apt-repository.sh.txt

2.  Save this file in /usr/sbin/

$ cp add-apt-repository.sh.txt /usr/sbin/add-apt-repository

3.  Change permissions to execute

$ chmod o+x /usr/sbin/add-apt-repository

4.  Change ownership to root

$chown root:root /usr/sbin/add-apt-repository

5.  Now when ever you need to execute command type
