Hmmm... if the problem is, what vorlon said, that aptitude doesn't
install (new?) recommends of installed packages, shouldn't that then be
changed?

Yes; if apt depends on debian-archive-keyring, debian-archive-keyring
(and with it gnupg) get's installed during an dist-upgrade:

=====
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  debian-archive-keyring dmidecode gcc-4.1-base gnupg laptop-detect
  [..]
=====


Yours sincerely,
