Package: cupt
Version: 0.2.2
Severity: normal

Hi,

for ia32-apt-get to work it has to do some magic with the Index files
apt-get downloads. This means mangling them after they have been
downloaded and signatures checked. This is fine in apt-get as it does
not check the signature again, only on download.

Now cupt on the otherhand seems to check the signature on every
invocation, even "cupt show cupt" resulting in warnings like this:

W: gpg: '/var/lib/apt/lists/chocos_debian_dists_sid-amd64_Release': bad 
signature: EA4ADBF06B83280C reprepro (signing key) 
<brede...@informatik.uni-tuebingen.de>

The signature check is not needed as the Release.gpg file will ever
only be there if the signature did check out during download. So
besides this breaking ia32-apt-get it is also a huge waste of time.

MfG
        Goswin
