Any ideas how to get azure-cli working inside Visual Studio Online Environment?

I tried install via official docs - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/install-azure-cli-apt?view=azure-cli-latest

echo "deb https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/azure-cli/ buster main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/azure-cli.list

And try to install

vsonline:/etc/apt/sources.list.d$ sudo apt-get install azure-cli

Package azure-cli is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'azure-cli' has no installation candidate

I have resolved by manually putting different package from Debian stretch version, and I can confirm that az login now works in Visual Studio Online environment :)

echo "deb https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/azure-cli/ stretch main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/azure-cli.list

and then

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install azure-cli
