Package: debmirror
Version: 1:2.25
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Bad me - I'm deliberately raising this bug against the wrong package.
My Google fu has been too weak to determine how to report problems with the 
archive.
Colin's always been so helpful in the past.
I'm sorry for abusing his kindness.
Hopefully he can steer this in the right direction without any great effort.

A few days ago, our local mirror started producing these messages:

[  0%] Getting: dists/wheezy-proposed-updates/Release.gpg... ok
[GNUPG:] BADSIG 8B48AD6246925553 Debian Archive Automatic Signing Key

.temp/.tmp/dists/wheezy-proposed-updates/Release.gpg signature does not verify.

Manual verification showed that they the file really does fail verification.
Manual downloading showed that it was downloaded correctly.
Looking at some approximation to the ultimate upstream:

http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/wheezy-proposed-updates/

I see the time on the .gpg file is almost six hours before the time on the file 
being signed.
I guess the signature is out-of-date then.
I'm being spammed every day by some code alleging a potential security issue.
I've just realized that the code scraping the debmirror log to do that is a 
local invention.
That might explain why I couldn't find an existing report of this issue.
Perhaps it's unimportant but I thought I should raise it somewhere.
