This bites us too after each release, but it's clearly gpg that decides that 
the Release file signatures aren't valid unless _all_ signatures can be 
verified, and I don't know if there's any way to tell it that _one_ valid 
signature is enough. How does APT validate the signatures?

Logging the output from gpg shouldn't be hard, though.
