[Koha] Unable install SUDO

[takan bhatt]

Chris Sir,

As per documentation,

Set up package sources

Add the GPG key to your system so that you know that the packages haven't
been tampered with:

 $ wget -q -O- https://debian.koha-community.org/koha/gpg.asc | sudo
apt-key add -


I think sudo is required to add koha key.


You are experienced person, I am just beginner.  You could suggest me
alternative or solution.
