I think that these things don't work for the people using Sarge and
debmirror; at least that is the impression I got from the reaction to my
earlier post. (The fact that this question was inserted into a thread
about aptitude in Sid makes it more difficult to give an appropriate
answer, of course.)
So let me try again:
It seems to me ("man debmirror", search for "key") that debmirror
expects to find the archive signing key in the public keyring of the
user which runs it, i.e.
~/.gnupg/pubring.gpg
Therefore I think it will be enough to import the signing key with gpg:
gpg --keyserver keyring.debian.org --recv-keys 2D230C5F
(with 2D230C5F being the key ID of the 2006 archive signing key), as
long as you run this command as the same user who will later run debmirror.
I hope this works.
