How should that work?<br>
<br>
We build all packages from source and require the power to change the<br>
code (e.g., for bug or security fixes). The signing key needs to be<br>
accessible when building. So should we create a signing key and add<br>
that to the package? That would defeat the purpose.<br>
<br>
IMO Iceweasel should trust the package manager and what it installs<br>
into the system.<br>
