[Bug 1247539] [NEW] [backportpackage] Error: debsign returned 2. Now what?

[anatoly techtonik]

Public bug reported:

$ backportpackage -u ppa:techtonik/ansible -s trusty -d saucy ansible
...
: clearsign failed: secret key not available
debsign: gpg error occurred!  Aborting....
backportpackage: Error: debsign returned 2.


It would be nice to see some proposals, what to do after this message. I am just trying to request a backport and test the build to help maintainers, and I am out of time to dig entrypoint for this GPG issue. Is it possible to guide what to do next? I guess #992739 is related.
