From 38ab07d34464317d3bc7b786ef1379468792c192 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Kahn Gillmor Date: Sun, 20 Nov 2016 23:09:24 -0500 Subject: dirmngr: Avoid automatically checking upstream swdb. * dirmngr/dirmngr.c (housekeeping_thread): Avoid automatically checking upstream's software database. In Debian, software updates should be handled by the distro mechanism, and additional upstream checks only confuse the user. * doc/dirmngr.texi: document that --allow-version-check does nothing.
