Before you deploy such a mechanism, I advise that you set up
another one between the "update" and "upgrade" which checks the
authority of the downloaded databases.

Details on how to implement this have been discusssed in the list
several times and an adequate answer can be found in the Debian
Security FAQ.  Upon request, I can send the perl script we're
using on daily basis.
