Fixed in git.  Could you let me know if you'd like any corrections
to the text:

# Force APT to accept unauthenticated packages.  By default,
# unauthenticated packages are not allowed.  This is to keep the build
# environment secure, using apt-secure(8).  By setting this to 1,
# APT::Get::AllowUnauthenticated is set to "true" when running apt-get.
# This is disabled by default: only enable it if you know what you are
# doing.
#$apt_allow_unauthenticated = 0;


Thanks,
Roger
