I hear you. I have been trying to get someone to pay attention too.
To test this, I just deleted all of my keys with apt-key, removed
the debian-keyring and debian-archive-keyring packages, reinstalled
those packages (said 2006 key was imported), then tried apt-get update.
This time, the sporadic nature of the problem is clearly demonstrated.
I have ftp.us stable, testing and unstable + security stable and testing
in my sources.list. I only got 1 error:
W: GPG error: http://ftp.us.debian.org testing Release: The following
signatures were invalid: BADSIG 010908312D230C5F Debian Archive
Automatic Signing Key (2006) <ftpmaster@debian.org>
But then, I tried apt-get update about 5 minutes later with NO CHANGES
and
got these erorrs:

So, will someone take this seriously?
