Justification: works against apt-secure

        Hi!

 The usage of update-notifier works against apt-secure: It looks like
(maybe my interpretation is flawed, so don't take this guess for
granted) it doesn't download the Release.gpg file.  At least when
update-notifier tells me that there are new packages to install, and I
try to install them through e.g. aptitude I am told that the packages
are being downloaded from an unsecure source.

 This is something that IMHO has absolutely to be fixed before the etch
release because as apt-secure is something that will be explicitly
mentioned in the new features and the release notes and such, it's a
horror to not have it work properly with this tool.

 Thanks in advance for taking a look at it.
