[dput-ng-maint] Bug#711057: Allow to give out dm permissions without using local keyring

[Thijs Kinkhorst]

Package: dput-ng
Version: 1.4
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I tried to give a DM some permissions but the dcut tool insists
that this is DM is in the debian-maintainers.gpg file as shipped
by debian-keyring.

However, the debian-keyring package is only uploaded about 3 to
4 times a year. This makes handing out permissions to those that
became DM in the past months not possible with dcut. It would be
nice if dcut could use keyring.debian.org, and/or has a flag to
override the check.

Btw, there's a missing space in the error message generated, see
attached.
