Package: apt-move
Version: 4.2.23
Tags: patch
Hello,
although apt-move needs rebuild to work with updated apt, so it
is currently uninstallable in unstable, if you'll rebuild it,
you'll notice that all packages are downloaded from the network
again and again as 'apt-get' prefers trusted signed sources
over unsigned, and there is no option how to disable this
behavior (only way I've found is modifying apt-get to treat
all sources as untrusted).
So I've wrote patch below which I use on my system to get
apt-move happy again (and signed repository as an additional
effect). Maybe someone else will need additional options passed
to the gpg (like removing --batch), but this is just what sufficed
to me.
Patch applies to both 4.2.23 in unstable and to Herbert's
upstream 4.2.24.
Thanks,
Petr Vandrovec
