it works in sid already (and is documented in the man page there, too)
and will certainly in etch. But you are right
that it won't work for woody and sarge chroots. I still believe it would
be wrong to use --force-yes since that may override many valid errors
while --allow-unauthenticated will only override the one error we're
seeing. Perhaps we can detect wether we need the option, somehow?
