    * Installs a keyring to the /usr/share/keyrings directory.
    * Prompts the user about trust anchored keys in APT's trusted.gpg and
      trusted.gpg.d files, then removes them.
    * Advanced users: Provides a debconf(1) template to reconfigure the
      keyring as a system trusted APT keyring. (Default: false)
  * matrix-archive-config: APT configuration
    * Installs an apt_preferences(5) file (a symbolic link from APT).
      * Pinned to matrix.org origin.
      * Pinned to priority 100.

      * Signed-By a keyring from matrix-archive-keyring.
  * Aware of the APT configuration via apt-config(8).

  * Notable changes since pre-releases prior to uploading to Debian:
    * Added bug-scripts for reportbug(1).
    * Changed version to match the date on the keys, not the upload date found
      on Matrix.org's HTTP servers (epoch increase, backwards incompatible).
    * +ds.x version numbering for Debian Source to match a common practice.
    * Fixed data loss on matrix-org.list (a typo in a test case, which led to
      the config migration code almost never being executed properly).
    * Added standard error output on encountering Debian Bug#696332 in
      lsb_release (re-discovered while testing the change mentioned before).
    * Added debian/copyright disclaimer for contrib area.
