You are not a DD, so Debian does not have a trust relationship with
you. It has nothing to do whether you are trustworthy or not, it is
about whether you have the trust. Since you're not a DD, you don't
have that trust.
(And yes, I think it's bad that the m68k port seems to be so dependent
on somebody who isn't a DD.)
