You mean amd64 sarge users still have a BADSIG error when running
apt-get update?
makki:/home/ecashin# apt-get update
...
Reading package lists... Done
W: GPG error: http://amd64.debian.net stable Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG E415B2B4B5F5BBED Debian AMD64 Archive Key <debian-amd64@lists.debian.org>
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
If not, I suppose sarge isn't using the public key crypto stuff, which
would explain why this still hasn't been fixed. However, then the
question would be: if sarge isn't using public key crypto, why is the
release file signed at all?
So if the Release file has a bad signature, who would be the one to
remove the signature? I wouldn't mind contacting that person.
