[Pkg-ia32-libs-maintainers] Bug#535274: /usr/share/ia32-apt-get/.gnupg should probably be moved to /etc

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: ia32-apt-get
Version: 18
Severity: normal

Hi,

ia32-apt-get creates /usr/share/ia32-apt-get/.gnupg with its keyrings
etc. The contents should probably be moved to /etc/ia32-apt-get/.
Running 
  gpg --homedir /etc/ia32-apt-get ...
should make gpg search the keyrings in /etc/ia32-apt-get/ (without
.gnupg appended), no more changing $HOME needed to fool gpg.

Removal of the package also leaves the empty directories
/usr/share/ia32-apt-get/dists/transitional/ and
/usr/share/ia32-apt-get/dists/ behind (they are removed during purge).

postrm should probably try to rmdir these (and /usr/share/ia32-apt-get)
after it did some cleanup in there during the "remove" step.

Thinking again, if there are custom signatures created in
/usr/share/ia32-apt-get, shouldn't this be moved to /var?
