Bug#1006542: apt: Please provide a script to export keys from trusted.gpg and reference it in apt-key(8)

[Eric Valette <eric.valette@free.fr>]

Package: apt
Version: 2.4.0
Severity: wishlist

Since new version I have warning about keys that have been stored in trusted.gpg file.
I do see the export or exportall command in apt-key (8) man page but wonder how
to automate the extraction and what is the best storage replacement.

It would be fine to provide a script that does the conversion if you intent to really suppress
the trusted.gpg support
