Installation shell script failure: link in installpsh-debian.sh is wrong #5700
Description
The link to the prod.list file in tools/installpsh-debian.sh is wrong:
https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/blob/master/tools/installpsh-debian.sh#L129
It should not be
curl https://packages.microsoft.com/config/ubuntu/$REV/prod.list | $SUDO tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/microsoft.list
but
curl https://packages.microsoft.com/config/debian/8/prod.list | $SUDO tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/microsoft.list
Indeed if you go to https://packages.microsoft.com/config/debian, you can see that there is only one directory (8), so it's not even needed to use the REV variable, which moreover is set to "8.9" on my machine.

Timothée Mazzucotelli (@pawamoy) Thanks for your report!
/cc Travis Plunk (@TravisEz13) Could you please comment the Issue?

It's usually better to keep the new suggested implementation and the repro separate, but the issue seems accurate.

Although, it does not agree with our documentation: https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/blob/master/docs/installation/linux.md#installation-via-package-repository---debian-8 I would suggest updating to be consistent with the documentation.
