On my etch box, this package was not installed. So I installed it (and
most all, if not all, of Gnome was removed as part of the process
(?!!)). Now I have this version:

-------------
westk[@]goshen]:/home/westk:> sudo aptitude show debian-archive-keyring
Unable to find an archive "stable" for the package "debian-archive-keyring"
Package: debian-archive-keyring
State: installed
Automatically installed: no
Version: 2007.07.31~etch1
Priority: important
Section: misc
Maintainer: Michael Vogt <mvo@debian.org>
Uncompressed Size: 57.3k
Depends: gnupg (>= 1.0.6-4)
Description: GnuPG archive keys of the Debian archive
 The Debian project digitally signs its Release files. This package
contains the archive keys used for that.

Tags: admin::file-distribution, role::data, security::authentication,
suite::debian


And if I enable Lenny in my sources.list and do another update, I still
have the same problem.

So it seems to me that there's no ("normal, everyday-user") way to
validate that the Lenny packages are valid without first installing a
Lenny package which you can't be sure is valid.

Am I missing something?

Thanks!
