Sorry, that was bad phrasing! It doesn't exist at all.
When the system finds a package_config/CLASS.asc key, the code is
effectively doing this:
apt-key add --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/CLASS.asc.gpg
CLASS.asc
but this command fails with an error because
/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/CLASS.asc.gpg does not exist.
It won't create it automatically.
My fix was just to 'touch' it because, as long as the keyring file
exists, it's OK to start with an empty one.
All the best,
Quentin
