+Introduction
+------------
+
+LEAP signs its Debian archive Release files that are stored on
+deb.leap.se with the archive signing key contained in this package.
+
+A quick overview about this package:
+* This keyrings are used by "apt" versions 0.6 and later. They
+ will be used with the apt-key command.
+* Normally (i.e. if the apt-key binary is found), the keys contained in
+ the debian-archive-keyring package will be automatically installed into
+ apt's trusted keyring by the package's postinst script and keys that are
+ in the debian-archive-keyring-removed will be automatically removed.
+* If the automatic installation of the keys fails, then the user can run
+ "apt-key update" manually.
+
+More information about the archive authentication feature can be found
+here: http://wiki.debian.org/SecureApt
