Yeah.
It actually looks like the repos you would add to a deb/apt based distro and then manjaro in the mix. That’s why I asked the OP where they got the instructions to add that repo.
I bet they are also unaware of the existence of such a repo
On top of that that repo doesn’t even exist anymore, just go to https://packages.microsoft.com and you will see it isn’t even listed anymore. Best way to install it is to to read the wiki page @pebcak shared or go to their official Linux documentation, it also has an Arch Linux section,which is the same option as one of the options listed on the wiki page. https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/setup/linux
