Hi,

debmirror fails to handle multiple keyrings specified in a config-file.

config-file:
@keyrings="/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/key-a.gpg,/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/key-b.gpg";

fails with:
gpgv: keyblock resource
'/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/key-a.gpg,/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/key-b.gpg':
No such file or directory

The attached patch fixes it.

Regards, Stefan

In a config file, couldn't you just write:

  @keyrings = ("/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/key-a.gpg", "/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/key-b.gpg");

?

My concern about applying your patch is that it would break the
(admittedly probably rare, but perfectly valid) case where the path to a
keyring file contains a comma.  While it's true that we do manual
comma-separation of other values (release names, section names,
architecture names, rsync-extra directory names), those are all cases
where the individual values themselves may not contain commas.

Hi Colin,

in view of the other comma-separated values, it looked like an error.
At that moment, I wasn't aware that path names can contain commas.
Specifying several key rings in the configuration file works. Feel
free to close this bug report.

Many Thanks, Stefan
