hmm, well, I thought I had this licked, but I guess I was wrong. tried this:
made a new ubuntu-keyring thusly: apt-get source ubuntu-keyring cd ubuntu-keyring/keyrings gpg --import < ubuntu-archive-keyring.gpg gpg --export > ubuntu-archive-keyring.gpg cd .. && dpkg-buildpackge ---rfakeroot -m"Matt Price <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" then I did all the necessary changes to the disk (add packages to pool, mostly) after which I have the following in a script # generate Packages, release, releases.gz sudo rm $BUILD/dists/breezy/Release.gpg $BUILD/dists/breezy/Release +$BUILD/dists/breezy/main/binary-i386/Packages +$BUILD/dists/breezy/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz apt-ftparchive packages $BUILD/pool/restricted/ > /tmp/Packages apt-ftparchive release $BUILD/dists/breezy > /tmp/Release sudo mv /tmp/Packages $BUILD/dists/breezy/main/binary-i386/ sudo mv /tmp/Release $BUILD/dists/breezy/ gpg --output /tmp/Release.gpg -ba $BUILD/dists/breezy/Release sudo mv /tmp/Release.gpg $BUILD/dists/breezy/ looked fine to me, but I get an error about a bad release file, so I a ssume it's not properly signed. gaah! driving me crazy. Anyway, thanks for the help, if anyone's done this successfully I'd be very grateful to learn what I'm doing wrong
