33 * 111 signals an internal error like the inability to execute gpgv,
34 * 112 indicates a clear-signed file which doesn't include a message,
35 * which can happen if APT is run while on a network requiring
36 * authentication before usage (e.g. in hotels)
37 * All other exit-codes are passed-through from gpgv.
