Bug#781696: apt-key del keyid is case sensitive



Package: apt
Version: 1.0.9.7

Reference: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1439313

Confirmed on Debian jessie apt 1.0.9.7
Behavior NOT seen on Debian wheezy apt 0.9.7.9+deb7u7
Confirmed on Ubuntu utopic with apt 1.0.9.2ubuntu2
Behavior NOT seen on Ubuntu precise with apt 0.8.16~exp12ubuntu10.22

apt-key export is not case-sensitive to the hex keyid specified. Inconsistently, apt-key del is case-sensitive and won't match unless the hex keyid is uppercase. This is highly exacerbated by (launchpad) bug #1256565 which results in "OK" being printed and success being returned when apt-key del doesn't match anything.

The user is reasonably left to conclude that the key has been deleted from the trusted keyring when it has not.

Example:

# apt-key export 7fac5991
