Package: synaptic
Version: 0.84.2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

Adding stretch-backports repo to my sources.list using synaptic, gave me
an error after relaoding packages list

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

Went to configuration -> repo -> Other software -> Add

deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ stretch-backports main

then validate and reload packages list

   * What was the outcome of this action?

'etc/apt/trusted.gpg is not readable by user '_apt' executing apt-key'

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

no error :)

I looked for help on the web, because I'm obviously not the only one
having this issue. And I tried one of the proposed solution which is
simply to remove trusted.gpg file. Then I works just fine. But as i'm
not knowledgeable about apt issues, no idea if this was a good/bad idea.

Note that I experienced that issue on a computer with Stretch freshly
installed yesterday using official netinst ISO
