Hi all,

With apologies if this is a FAQ: why do the ISC BIND packages for Ubuntu, linked from https://kb.isc.org/docs/isc-packages-for-bind-9 and published at https://launchpad.net/~isc/+archive/ubuntu/bind, depend on debsuryorg-archive-keyring? That package makes Apt trust a key for an entirely different Apt repository, not used (as far as I can tell) by the Launchpad PPA at all. (Also it installs the key into /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d, which is considered insecure and deprecated [1].)

$ apt-key list
(...)
/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/debsuryorg-archive.gpg
---------------------------------------------
pub   rsa3072 2019-03-18 [SC] [expires: 2026-02-04]
      1505 8500 A023 5D97 F5D1  0063 B188 E2B6 95BD 4743
uid           [ unknown] DEB.SURY.ORG Automatic Signing Key <d...@sury.org>
sub   rsa3072 2019-03-18 [E] [expires: 2026-02-04]
(...)

(Or should I treat deb.sury.org, rather than the Launchpad PPA, as the official repository for these packages?)
