Install Cloudflare warp cli in ubuntu 23.04 or any non LTS versions have issues

I'm trying to install Cloudflare Warp on my Ubuntu 23.04, but it seems that the official Cloudflare repository only provides support for LTS versions. Consequently, I'm unable to find a straightforward method to install Cloudflare Warp on my system.

I couldn't find any specific instructions for non-LTS versions. Can someone guide me on how to install Cloudflare Warp on Ubuntu 23.04 (or any other non-LTS version) using an alternative method?

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

The official instructions from https://pkg.cloudflareclient.com/#ubuntu has one small issue that needs to be fixed to install Warp on Ubuntu 23.04.

Use the following three commands. (Note that I changed $(lsb_release -cs) to bookworm in the second command and that is the only change required for Ubuntu 23.04)

Commands:

# Add cloudflare gpg key
curl https://pkg.cloudflareclient.com/pubkey.gpg | sudo gpg --yes --dearmor --output /usr/share/keyrings/cloudflare-warp-archive-keyring.gpg


# Add this repo to your apt repositories
echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/cloudflare-warp-archive-keyring.gpg] https://pkg.cloudflareclient.com/ bookworm main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cloudflare-client.list


# Install
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install cloudflare-warp

Explanation:

If you type lsb_release -cs into your terminal in Ubuntu 23.04 it will return:

No LSB modules are available.
Codename:   lunar

Instead try the command cat /etc/debian_version which returns:

bookworm/sid

So the replacement command above becomes the following (you drop the "/sid" portion):

echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/cloudflare-warp-archive-keyring.gpg] https://pkg.cloudflareclient.com/ bookworm main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cloudflare-client.list

After the install a warp-cli register and a warp-cli connect should get you up and running. You should see a cloud icon in your tray and of course verify with 1.1.1.1/help to make sure that "Using DNS over WARP" is "Yes" and your IPv4 and IPv6 resolvers aren't your ISP's.

Hope that helps!
