2015-08-10merge keyrings with cat instead of gpg in apt-keyDavid Kalnischkies
If all keyrings are simple keyrings we can merge the keyrings with cat rather than doing a detour over gpg --export | --import (see #790665), which means 'apt-key verify' can do without gpg and just use gpgv as before the merging change. We declare this gpgv usage explicit now in the dependencies. This isn't a new dependency as gnupg as well as debian-archive-keyring depend on and we used it before unconditionally, just that we didn't declare it. The handling of the merged keyring needs to be slightly different as our merged keyring can end up containing the same key multiple times, but at least currently gpg does remove only the first occurrence with --delete-keys, so we move the handling to a if one is gone, all are gone rather than an (implicit) quid pro quo or even no effect. Thanks: Daniel Kahn Gillmor for the suggestion
2015-08-10support gpg 2.1.x in apt-keyDavid Kalnischkies
The output of gpg slightly changes in 2.1 which breaks the testcase, but the real problem is that this branch introduces a new default keyring format (which is called keybox) and mixing it with simple keyrings (the previous default format) has various problems like failing in the keybox to keyring import (#790665) or [older] gpgv versions not being able to deal with keyboxes (and newer versions as well currently: https://bugs.gnupg.org/gnupg/issue2025). We fix this by being a bit more careful in who creates keyrings (aka: we do it or we take a simple keyring as base) to ensure we always have a keyring instead of a keybox. This way we can ensure that any version combination of gpv/gpgv2 and gnupg/gnupg2 without doing explicit version checks and use the same code for all of them. Closes: 781042
2015-08-10enhance apt-key debugging optionsDavid Kalnischkies
It is sometimes handy to know how apt-key exactly called gpg, so adding a pair of options to be able to see this if wanted is added. Two are needed as some commands output is redirected to /dev/null, while sfor others stdout is piped into another gpg call so in both cases you wouldn't see all and hence you can choose.

2015-08-10implement Signed-By option for sources.listDavid Kalnischkies
Limits which key(s) can be used to sign a repository. Not immensely useful from a security perspective all by itself, but if the user has additional measures in place to confine a repository (like pinning) an attacker who gets the key for such a repository is limited to its potential and can't use the key to sign its attacks for an other (maybe less limited) repository… (yes, this is as weak as it sounds, but having the capability might come in handy for implementing other stuff later).

2015-04-07keyids in "apt-key del" should be case-insensitiveDavid Kalnischkies
gnupg is case-insensitive about keyids, so back then apt-key called it directly any keyid was accepted, but now that we work more with the keyid ourself we regressed to require uppercase keyids by accident. This is also inconsistent with other apt-key commands which still use gnupg directly. A single case-insensitive grep and we are fine again. Closes: 781696
2014-11-28support long keyids in "apt-key del" instead of ignoring themJames McCoy
apt-key given a long keyid reports just "OK" all the time, but doesn't delete the mentioned key as it doesn't find the key. Note: In debian/experimental this was closed with 29f1b977100aeb6d6ebd38923eeb7a623e264ffe which just added the testcase as the rewrite of apt-key had fixed this as well. Closes: 754436
2014-10-20test if TMPDIR is accessible before usingDavid Kalnischkies
Private temporary directories as created by e.g. libpam-tmpdir are nice, but they are also very effective in preventing our priviledge dropping to work as TMPDIR will be set to a directory only root has access to, so working with it as _apt will fail. We circumvent this by extending our check for a usable TMPDIR setting by checking access rights. Closes: 765951
2014-09-29Test if TMPDIR is a directory in apt-key and if not unset itMichael Vogt
This prevents a failure in mktemp -d - it will blindly trust TMPDIR and not use something else if the dir is not there.
2014-09-27add and use 'apt-key verify' which prefers gpgv over gpgDavid Kalnischkies
gnupg/gnupg2 can do verify just fine of course, so we don't need to use gpgv here, but it is what we always used in the past, so there might be scripts expecting a certain output and more importantly the output of apt-cdrom contains messages from gpg and even with all the settings we activate to prevent it, it still shows (in some versions) a quiet scary: "gpg: WARNING: Using untrusted key!" message. Keeping the use of gpgv is the simplest way to prevent it. We are increasing also the "Breaks: apt" version from libapt as it requires a newer apt-key than might be installed in partial upgrades.

2014-09-27add --readonly option for apt-key advDavid Kalnischkies
Some advanced commands can be executed without the keyring being modified like --verify, so this adds an option to disable the mergeback and uses it for our gpg calling code. Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-09-27use only one --keyring in gpg interactionsDavid Kalnischkies
We were down to at most two keyrings before, but gnupg upstream plans dropping support for multiple keyrings in the longrun, so with a single keyring we hope to be future proof – and 'apt-key adv' isn't a problem anymore as every change to the keys is merged back, so we have now the same behavior as before, but support an unlimited amount of trusted.gpg.d keyrings.
2014-09-27add --secret-keyring option for apt-keyDavid Kalnischkies
For some advanced usecases it might be handy to specify the secret keyring to be used (e.g. as it is used in the testcases), but specifying it via a normal option for gnupg might not be available forever: http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2013-August/047180.html Git-Dch: Ignore

2014-09-27support gnupg2 as drop-in replacement for gnupgDavid Kalnischkies
If both are available APT will still prefer gpg over gpg2 as it is a bit more lightweight, but it shouldn't be a problem to use one or the other (at least at the moment, who knows what will happen in the future).
2014-09-27delay gnupg setup in apt-key until it is neededDavid Kalnischkies
'apt-key help' and incorrect usage do not need a functioning gnupg setup, as well as we shouldn't try to setup gnupg before we actually test if it is available (and print a message if it is not).
2014-09-27merge fragment keyrings in apt-key to avoid hitting gpg limitsDavid Kalnischkies
gnupg has a hardlimit of 40 (at the moment) keyrings per invocation, which can be exceeded with (many) repositories. That is rather misfortune as the longrun goal was to drop gnupg dependency at some point in the future, but this can now be considered missed and dropped. It also means that 'apt-key adv' commands might not have the behaviour one would expect it to have as it mainly operates on a big temporary keyring, so commands modifying keys will break. Doing this was never a good idea anyway through, so lets just hope nothing break too badly. Closes: 733028

2014-01-16use gpg --homedir instead of explicit file placementDavid Kalnischkies
Avoids that gpg gets the idea it could use files from the user which weren't overridden specifically like secret keyring and trustdb as before.

2013-12-01generate apt-key script with vendor info about keysDavid Kalnischkies
The apt-key script uses quiet a few keyring files for operation which are specific to the distribution it is build on and is hence one of the most patched parts – even if it is not that often used anymore now that a fragment directory for trusted.gpg exists.
