Public bug reported:

On first run, I see:

+ gpg --homedir=/home/ubuntu/.cache/autopkgtest --batch --no-random-seed-file 
--gen-key key-gen-params
gpg: keyring `/home/ubuntu/.cache/autopkgtest/secring.gpg' created
gpg: keyring `/home/ubuntu/.cache/autopkgtest/pubring.gpg' created
+++++.+++++++++++++++.++++++++++.+++++++++++++++++++++++++.+++++++++++++++.+++++..+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++>+++++.+++++......>.+++++..........+++++

Not enough random bytes available.  Please do some other work to give
the OS a chance to collect more entropy! (Need 222 more bytes)

I often end up running adt-run on a freshly deployed development
machine, and this blocks me every time, even on bare metal. Workaround:
Ctrl-C, rm -rf ~/.cache/autopkgtest, replace /dev/random with a symlink
to /dev/urandom and rerun.

There is no reason for adt-run to need this level of cryptographically
secure entropy. gpg key generation is expected to be run very rarely,
rather than in routine development. Please could we remove this
requirement? Is there a way to use [trusted=yes] in sources.list so no
internal signing is required, for example, or at least to generate a key
less pedantically if it must be create? I'm not sure what options exist
to cause gpg to be less pedantic though.
