Hello Wes,

It seems the key ID 6294BE9B is found in
/usr/share/keyring/debian-role-keys.gpg [1]; .iso should verify with that.

I was thinking of writing a three line paragraph to make the wiki [2] more
clear on the matter (i.e. provide the gpgv command with the specific file
to pass to --keyring), but after reading this:

    Official role keys have gradually replaced the use of personal keys
    belonging to developers. However, a decision was made not to go back and
    re-sign all the old releases that were already signed using the older keys.

I am unsure on whether Jessie and future releases will have their .iso signed
by a key from debian-keyring.gpg or debian-role-keys.gpg. Can anyone shed
light on the matter?
