Sounds good.  Should there also be a version for bionic as LTS may be more
widespread?  Personally I am with you as I also run 19.10 -- but if you were
to offer 18.04 then 18.04 + 18.10 + 19.04 + 19.10 users could run it. Seems
better, no?

I think you are actively importing key 'A' and it tells you it is missing key
'B' where A != B.  See e.g.

Yep!
