Hi Rob, Which keyservers did you use? $ gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 64E6EA7D gpg: requesting key 64E6EA7D from hkp server keys.gnupg.net gpg: key 64E6EA7D: public key "Debian CD signing key <[email protected]>" imported gpg: no ultimately trusted keys found gpg: Total number processed: 1 gpg: imported: 1 (RSA: 1) It's also on keyring.debian.org. I created the key for signing Debian CD releases, and it's signed by a number of people including two previous DPLs and members of the release team: $ gpg --list-sigs 64E6EA7D pub 4096R/64E6EA7D 2009-10-03 uid Debian CD signing key <[email protected]> sig 3 64E6EA7D 2009-10-03 Debian CD signing key <[email protected]> sig 88C7C1F7 2009-10-03 Steve McIntyre <[email protected]> sig 3442684E 2009-10-03 Steve McIntyre <[email protected]> sig AFF122B0 2009-10-03 Christopher J.
