apt gpg keys/signatures
Hi,
I am currently working on apt-offline and trying to get it in shape to get
included into Debian.
Most things work but there's one glitch.
If I do an apt-offline based package database update, later apt would
complain me of signature errors.
As part of apt-offline, I download whatever apt-get generates in the
following command:
`apt-get -qq --print-uris update`
This generates requests for *Release.gpg files also.
I notice that following are the *Release.gpg files in my machine.
rrs@champaran:/var/lib/apt/lists $ ls *.gpg
deb.opera.com_opera_dists_sid_Release.gpg
deb.opera.com_opera_dists_testing_Release.gpg

>From an external user to apt, how should I manipulate these signatures ?
If I do this:
rrs@champaran:~/apt-offline (master)$ for x in /tmp/apt-offline-
downloads-14871/*.gpg; do sudo apt-key add $x; done
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.

So I'm not very sure what would be the right way to do this.
