Package: debarchiver
Version: 0.5.3
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
I see that while I was distracted by other things people fixed the Release
signing. That's great! However, it looks like that, in the process of
fixing noninteractive signing, interactive signing stopped working. (I
may be the only one who uses that!)
The following attached patch fixes this for me, and I think shouldn't
break anything else since it's only in the interactive path.
