       Update the local keyring with the archive keyring and remove from
       the local keyring the archive keys which are no longer valid.
       The archive keyring is shipped in the <literal>archive-keyring</literal> package of your
       distribution, e.g. the &keyring-package; package in &keyring-distro;.

     </para>

     <varlistentry><term><option>net-update</option></term>
     <listitem>
     <para>

       Perform an update working similarly to the <command>update</command> command above,
       but get the archive keyring from a URI instead and validate it against a master key.

       This requires an installed &wget; and an APT build configured to have
       a server to fetch from and a master keyring to validate.

       APT in Debian does not support this command, relying on
       <command>update</command> instead, but Ubuntu's APT does.
