** Summary changed:

- placeholder
+ python-apt downloads from untrusted sources where apt does not

** Description changed:

- Placeholder bug.
+ ptyhon-apt never checked whether the hashes it got were signed in the
+ first place. So, python-apt is happy to download files from unsigned
+ repositories when it shouldn't.
+ 
+ Making the code only fetch trusted packages means that using it on
+ untrusted packages will fail. There might be use cases broken by this.

** Information type changed from Private Security to Public Security
