Bug Description

debian-archive-keyring is too old. The result being that, once installed, debootstrap will fail for Debian Testing.

$ sudo debootstrap testing ./testing http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/
I: Retrieving Release
I: Retrieving Release.gpg
I: Checking Release signature
E: Release signed by unknown key (key id 8B48AD6246925553)

The package available in precise-backports works fine but this would mean a user enabling backports, which *may* upgrade any and all packages that have a newer backports releases. This is not always desirable.

EDIT: Okay, so, on reading a lot about how APT works it seem that enabling backports doesn't have such a dramatic negative effect, but someone more knowledgeable can confirm or deny this.
