Bug#316372: /etc/apt/trusted.gpg not world readable



Package: apt
Version: 0.6.38
Severity: normal

/etc/apt/trusted.gpg is mode 600. This breaks anything that uses apt to
download (etc) packages and runs as a regular user, since it cannot
verify signatures. One example is the debian-installer build. We have
worked around the problem there by the hack of pointing apt at
/usr/share/apt/debian-archive.gpg, which I suspect is a temporary
filename and which will cause unnecessary work for derivers.

I don't see any reason to have the file not be world readable in stock
installs, do you?
