Hi, I am just wondering about a hypothetical situation where the master GPG key used for signing the debian archive was stolen. After creating a new master key and getting a new public key into the debian-keyring package, how would you get that to users?
I mean if you resigned the release file after the attack happened with a new master key that would mean nobody could apt-get the debian-keyring package for the new public key. I am wondering if I am missing something. Is there a process for this possibility?
