[Bug 1754075] Re: apt-setup uses apt-key but probably should not anymore

[Łukasz Zemczak]

Hello Manoj, or anyone else affected,

Accepted apt-setup into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and
be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-
setup/1:0.104ubuntu5.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed
repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: apt-setup (Ubuntu Bionic)
       Status: Confirmed => Fix Committed

Title:
  apt-setup uses apt-key but probably should not anymore

Status in apt-setup package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in apt-setup source package in Bionic:
  Fix Committed
Status in apt-setup package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Adding key via apt-setup does not work

  [Test case]
  Add key via apt-setup, make sure it's installed correctly

  [Regression potential]
  If gnupg2 was installed before apt-setup is run, the code would work, and now behave differently installing keys into trusted.gpg.d instead of trusted.gpg.

  [Original bug report]
  In di if the kernel is in a private PPA we seed di using

  d-i apt-setup/local0/key string
  http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=<key>

  this used to work in xenial, but in bionic this fails and therefore
  apt update fails in base-installer. May be because add-apt-key is not
  installed.
