Bug Description

Binary package hint: apt-dater

/usr/share/doc/apt-dater/README contains incorrect instructions about configuring apt-dater management computer, currently there is

  Generate a SSH keypair:
    ssh-keygen -t TYPE

  Distribute the public key(s) e.g.:
    ssh-copy-id .ssh/your-public-key managed-host

There are 2 problems - ssh-keygen doesn't need to specify -t TYPE, also ssh-copy-id should have -i option before public key, so this text should be:

  Generate a SSH keypair:
    ssh-keygen [-t TYPE]

  Distribute the public key(s) e.g.:
    ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/your-public-key host-user@managed-host

I'm attaching a PATCH, which fixes this problem.

Btw, apt-dater package is outdated in Ubuntu Jaunty (at version 0.6.4) - please sync with Debian, it has 0.7 version, which works fine - I'm using it for about a week :)
