Hi,

  I'm poking around at the new security stuff in apt 0.6, and I have a quick 
question:

  What exactly is the purpose of the IndexFile class, and how does it behave?  
For instance, pkgAcqArchive::IsTrusted appears to assume that some index file 
will always be available for a given Version.  Is that true?

  I mention this method because if no index file is found, it returns "true", 
so a complete lack of index files -- meaning nothing to check for trustedness 
-- results in the routine reporting that the item is trusted.  If it was 
possible that no index files would be available, I would expect this to 
return "false", unless I completely misunderstand what's going on.

    Thanks,
  Daniel
