Hmmm... I wish I understood GPG. FWIW, below is what I just got one of my sid systems after running the wget/apt-key command above. Prior to that I got a list of GPG errors, one for each mirror in sources.list, so the european mirrors are all dealt with by the added key. I don't know what the "Bizarre Error" is all about though!
