I haven't noticed this problem. I thought the default keyring was
created by default, thanks for your bug report!

The attached patch should fix the problem. Can you please try it? I
tried with a newly created user, and it works for me. Most of the patch
is actually a better way of showing debug messages if -d is passed as
argument.

I don't have the time to create a patched package right now, but if I
have the time I'll create one later today. If it works for you we'll try
to get the release team approval for this change to go into Etch. I
don't think there will be problems.

Thanks again,

See you,
