Description (last modified by adehnert)
At the moment, achernya has the apt repo signing key on his laptop. We should put it somewhere more useful.
See discussion 2011-09-09 on -c scripts -i apt.
- Stick it in the locker
- Unencrypted (protected by AFS ACLs to scripts-root)
- Encrypted to maintainer's keys
- Stick it on the hosts
- Stick it on the Fedora guests
- Stick it on some build VM or server
- Something else
- Have each maintainer store it themselves
(3) is a bit silly. Other than that, I think they were all vaguely acceptable. One concern is whether a signed repo with a leaked key is worse than an unsigned repo (if it isn't, then being insecure is vaguely okay). (4) should ideally avoid having a single un-backed-up VM that needs to not vanish, by storing the key elsewhere.
