Bug#735840: Please allow binary file debian/upstream-signing-key.pgp by default

[Artur R. Czechowski]

Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.17.6
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/dpkg-source

For some time the debian/watch configuration file provides a way to verify
the pgp signature of upstream sources. It requires a keyring file put in
debian/ subdirectory. It result wit a following error:
dpkg-source: error: unwanted binary file: debian/upstream-signing-key.pgp
anytime the dpkg-source is run.

Please allow the debian/upstream-signing-key.pgp file by default, without need
of adding it into debian/source/include-binaries.

Regards
    Artur
