Once you have run the "--rev-keys" command successfully, you can do

gpg -a --export 1F41B907 | sudo apt-key add -

to add the key to apt's keyring. (Replace "sudo" with your preferred
method of getting root if desired.)

If you have downloaded the key as a separate file then you can feed this
file to apt-key directly (assuming the file is called marillat.txt):

sudo apt-key add marillat.txt

The key file has to start like this:

-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux)

In any case you can check with "sudo apt-key list" if the key has indeed
been added.
