Hi,

I disagree with this removal: I think it's helpful for things like who-
uploads or dget -x to work without warnings on Ubuntu when fetching
Debian sources.

We have other keyrings in the archive:
debian-archive-keyring, debian-edu-archive-keyring, debian-keyring

I think the archive keyrings are helpful when creating Debian chroots
from an Ubuntu host, and the maintainers keyring are helpful when
verifying the signature of .dsc files, or just to avoid warnings when
using Debian tools from an Ubuntu host (I regularly run "who-uploads"
for instance, even if it concerns Debian packages).

In all cases, we should have a consistent story, and given the
maintenance efforts of the keyring packages and the lack of any good
reason to remove them, I'd rather keep them.

Thanks,

** Summary changed:
