[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#606668: sbuild: shouldn't read gpg.conf when signing dummy archive key

[Simon McVittie]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.60.7-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

My gpg.conf sets up a non-default secret keyring in a location that sbuild
can't see. This causes signing of the dummy archive key to fail when using
the aptitude resolver (because --secret-keyring appears to have the semantics
of "add another secret keyring", not "replace the secret keyring", and gpg
refuses to run unless it can access all of its secret keyrings).

Please see attached patch, which makes the gpg run by sbuild not use ~/.gnupg
at all.
