Package: apt
Version: 0.6.43
Severity: normal

Since the year has turned over, apt-get update now produces the error: 
[...]
Reading package lists... Done
W: GPG error: http://http.us.debian.org testing Release: The following 
signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: 
NO_PUBKEY 010908312D230C5F
W: GPG error: http://http.us.debian.org unstable Release: The following 
signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: 
NO_PUBKEY 010908312D230C5F

Because the release key is not provided via an automated mechanism.
Leaveing aside that the means for getting a new key are not documented
in /usr/share/doc/apt or apt-doc, there is the additional issue that
undocumented, this looks like the debian servers may be compromised.

Secondarily, the recipes I can find for updating to the new release key
do not make clear whether the new release key is verifiable in any way.
I am worried that debian may be violating its trust model once a year.
