Bug#596498: sources.list: add option to mark unsigned (local) repository as trusted



Package: apt
Version: 0.8.0
Severity: wishlist

It would be nice if a repository could be marked as trusted in the
sources.list.  This would make it easier to use local repositories with,
for example, pbuilder without having to generate a PGP key, signing the
repository and finally importing the key into apt, see also [1].

I suggest to add something like this:

  deb [trusted] file:/foo/bar unstable main

or

  deb [trusted=1] file:/foo/bar unstable main

APT should then handle the repository just like one signed with a
trusted key.

Ansgar
