Well this would not be a big thing, would it? When I take a look at the ftp server, there is a .dsc with pgp signatures for each package. So letting dselect / aptitude or better dpkg-get doing a check for the key via gpg would be no big deal, or am I wrong? As there are many mirrors worldwide, that could be hacked or something, it would be a huge security improvement.
