Bug#928931: The inability to use apt-setup/local0/repository makes it impossible to upgrade to Debian 10

what about the other suggested workaround of simply adding the line

"d-i base-installer/includes string gnupg" to your preseed file?

Or if that's in use already you could use the early command like this:

d-i preseed/early_command string mkdir -p
/usr/lib/apt-setup/generators/; echo -e '#!/bin/sh\nchroot $ROOT apt-get
--yes --no-install-recommends install gnupg' >
/usr/lib/apt-setup/generators/59local; chmod a+x
/usr/lib/apt-setup/generators/59local


That said, I would also love to see this issue solved properly.


Best wishes
