before:
------

ii  debian-archive-keyring       ..        2006.11.22

# apt-get install debian-archive-keyring

after:
-----

ii  debian-archive-keyring       ..        2007.07.31~etch1

.. and 'apt-get update' now works fine again.

So, it looks like I was still using the keyring from before etch went
stable (?)

What's the purpose of 'apt-key update'?

Thanks!
