Repositories #3056

Not a bug...

Just a suggestion/feature request that this page...

https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/blob/master/docs/installation/linux.md

Should probably also mention that official Microsoft repositories seem to exist for RHEL, SLES and Ubuntu over at packages.microsoft.com.

You can see them in use on this page...

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/linux/sql-server-linux-setup-tools

The same repository details on that page also work for powershell (you can see in the repository that todays alpha 15 release is already in there - so someone is maintaining it)...

http://packages.microsoft.com/ubuntu/16.04/prod/pool/main/p/powershell/

At least if people use a repository rather than individual packages... they'll get updates with the rest of their system. Now if only they can throw Skype in there too... hmmm...
