No, was just a wild guess in case gpg was getting confused by seeing a missing private key for an ultimately trusted key or something like that. > > perhaps that's even your private key? > > No, it is upstream's.

I think this is just git being missing in that chroot. And I see the error message from get-version is not very clear, will improve that. If you don't want to install git there, you could workaround it with something like: «echo -n 1.20.3 >.dist-version» Thanks, Guillem
