Bug#918371: /usr/bin/apt-key: Fails to list help message for apt-key list command

Package: apt

Version: 1.4.8

Severity: wishlist

File: /usr/bin/apt-key

Dear Maintainer,

Given that I am a user of Debian Linux in an LXC container on Chrome OS

When I would like to list the help of the "list" command

Then I expect to see the apt-key list help page

The current functionality does not support this feature under the aforementioned circumstances

The outcome of the action was I received the gpg help

information instead

-- Package-specific info:

-- apt-config dump --
