[Bug 838299] Re: Installing debian-archive-keyring does not activate the Debian keyring

[Daniel Hahler]

I suggest adding the Debian keyring as follows via the package's postinst:
    ln -s /usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d

Does this make sense?

Title:
  Installing debian-archive-keyring does not activate the Debian keyring

Bug description:
  Installing the debian-archive-keyring package should add the
  appropriate keys to the apt keychain, but it does not.

  I have debugged this a while ago and if I remember correctly, it is
  caused by ubuntu-keyring interfering here.

  From what I can see /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/ should be a good place to
  put both the Debian and Ubuntu keyrings.

  I have added Debian's unstable and testing sources, and am getting the following error, although debian-archive-keyring is installed:
  Reading package lists... Done
