[Colin Watson <cjwatson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The proposal to merge lp:~cjwatson/launchpad/uefiroot-ppa into lp:launchpad has been updated.

Description changed to:

== Summary ==

Bug 1036597: In order to release security updates to signed UEFI images, we need to be able to sign UEFI images in selected PPAs.  Of course these would need to use a different key.

== Proposed fix ==

All the files that Launchpad currently looks at in signing_keys_root are <something>.gpg, so we can safely create a uefi/ subdirectory there and put keys in uefi/OWNER/NAME/.

== LOC Rationale ==

+11.  I have 3853 lines of credit and this will be critical to Ubuntu Engineering from the 12.10 release onward.

== Tests ==

bin/test -vvct lib/lp/archivepublisher/tests/archive-signing.txt -t lp.archivepublisher.tests.test_config

== Demo and Q/A ==

Generate a test key for cjwatson/ppa on dogfood and try to publish that PPA; it currently has two uploads blocked in ACCEPTED waiting for this bug fix, which should now be able to publish.

== Lint ==

Pre-existing, unrelated to my code:

./configs/testrunner/launchpad-lazr.conf
