+ is a tri-state value which defaults to APT deciding if a source
+ is considered trusted or if warnings should be raised before e.g.
+ packages are installed from this source. This option can be used
+ to override this decision either with the value <literal>yes</literal>,
+ which lets APT consider this source always as a trusted source
+ even if it has no or fails authentication checks by disabling parts
+ of &apt-secure; and should therefore only be used in a local and trusted
+ context (if at all) as otherwise security is breached. The opposite
+ can be achieved with the value no, which causes the source to be handled
+ as untrusted even if the authentication checks passed successfully.
+ The default value can't be set explicitly.
