Hi there
Thanks! So to bring my questions to an end: In dpkg 1.9.21 the signature
checking feature for the .debs is compiled into the code AND active as
soon as debsig-verify is installed. I read the mentioned thread too, but
it was not clear to me if this was only a feature, that's not activated
yet or anything. Furthermore, there are lots of different opinions
around concerning this security feature. Some say it is included, others
say not.
In this case we can say: When doing network installs via dselect or any
other apt-get frontend, the signatures of the .debs are checked during
installation time, IF debsig-verify is installed. This works at least
from dpkg 1.9.21 on.
