Public bug reported: The package that Ubuntu calls "ubuntu-keyring" is present in Debian as "ubuntu-archive-keyring".
Debian has separate "debian-keyring" and "debian-archive-keyring" packages, described as follows: d-k: GnuPG keys of Debian Developers and Maintainers d-a-k: GnuPG archive keys of the Debian archive IMO this is a reasonable distinction, as the keys of developers/maintainers are rarely needed by end users, and the d-k package is significantly larger (on the order of 30 MB). Thus, the current "ubuntu-keyring" package would be better named "ubuntu-archive-keyring", not only so that the equivalent package has the same name in both distros, but also to maintain the same distinction between developer keys and archive keys. (Ubuntu could potentially decide to ship a package containing Ubuntu developer keys in the future, and it would be awkward if this needed to be named e.g. "ubuntu-devel- keyring" or the like.) ** Affects: ubuntu-keyring (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1782641 Title: Request: Rename "ubuntu-keyring" package to "ubuntu-archive-keyring" for consistency with Debian To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-keyring/+bug/1782641/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
