Package: devscripts
Version: 2.23.4
Severity: normal

Earlier this month I attempted to upload a security-related stable-pu;
however, "debsign foo.changes && dput foo.changes" never reached the
dput stage, because GPG decided that it was a good time to update the
trustdb.  Updating the trustdb takes about five minutes on my system,
and it runs this before running pinentry to actually make the
signature.  I ran out of free time while waiting.

An up-to-date trustdb isn't needed to sign a changes file, so I think 
--no-auto-check-trustdb should be debsign's default.  Alternatively, please 
allow it to be set as a config option.

It looks like this would be a trivial patch, but I'd like to confirm with 
others that this would be a good idea, and that I'm not just biased!


Thank you,
Nicholas

I consulted the changelog of 2.23.6 to confirm this bug is still outstanding.
