Thanks for the note about key IDs. I'd be interested in pointers to the
fixup code that runs on dogfood.

I agree that there's potential for duplicated run-parts directories in
the future. OTOH it's 136 LoC total right now and not likely to grow
hugely, and we could easily arrange for the ubuntu-archive-publishing
code to be sensitive to LPCONFIG or whatever so that it could be much
the same codebase; I suspect that experience with multiple distributions
that use this (as opposed to PPA-style native publishing all the way)
would also allow a bit more of it to be refactored into Python code.
For example, although it's small, I see no obvious reason why
publish-distro.d/20-remove-uncompressed-listings is a hook rather than
being done in the publisher code itself.
