Description

I tried to run
curl https://get.docker.com | sudo sh and a fresh elementaryOS 8.0 stable install

The error I got is

E: The repository 'https://download.docker.com/linux/debian trixie Release' does not have a Release file.

I guess that's because the distro could not be identified correctly?
ElementaryOS 8.0 is based on Ubuntu 24.04 and should be treated like it is an Ubuntu 24.04
