Update install-azure-cli.rst #258

Suggesting to change it to match what's on Microsoft's guide.

I got "E: Unable to locate package api-transport-https" from your instructions.

Hey @YanisaHS, thanks for trying out the instructions and the PR!

The order of the packages listed in an apt-get install command shouldn't usually matter. I just tried the command on my local machine and on a cloud VM, and it works fine. Did you happen to lose connectivity while running the command? Or maybe run the update command between your two trials (the one giving an error and the one from microsoft's guide)?

Anyway, there's no harm in changing the command to match the one in Microsoft's guide. It might help avoid such confusions for the user. @gjolly wdyt?

Hey @k-dimple! I didn't think it should matter either, but I wasn't sure why it would error. I'll send you my terminal output. Maybe it was a connection issue or something else? Feel free to reject the PR if you want :smiley: I figured it'd be easier to send it this way (rather than an issue) if you decided to change it

Since there was no obvious reason for the error at your end, and it'll anyway be better to reduce the confusion and match Microsoft's guide, I am going to merge it. Thanks for bringing this up, @YanisaHS!
