Oh, okay, well, that's a different goal. That is *definitely* not a "modest policy clarification"; that's a substantial change to Debian archive policy, probably rising to the GR level. If you want to pursue that, please open a separate Policy bug at the very least, and I suspect you will need to start with a GR; I think it will require a GR to reject from main packages that install unsigned code. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
