How are you going to provide, say, S/390 binaries? ☺

What about distribution integration and bugtracking?

I find this extremely questionable, personally. In fact,
while it’s apparently normal in the RPM world to add
/etc/yum.repos.d/* files in the $foo-keyring packages,
I have not done so in the keyring DEB package for my own
personal repository, and will not do so, rather relying
on the user (admin) to edit their sources.list manually.
