[Bug 1522993] Re: Deleting a non-existent key does not result in an error

[Sworddragon]

I'm also noticing that trying to delete multiple keys at once does only
delete the first key while I would either expect an error message or
that all keys get deleted.

Title:
  Deleting a non-existent key does not result in an error

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 dev with apt 1.1.3 and if I'm deleting a key
  with "apt-key del" which does not exist "OK" is being shown and 0 is
  returned while I would expect an error message to be shown and another
  value than 0 being returned. Here is an example how it currently
  looks:

  root at ubuntu:~# apt-key del does_not_exist
  OK
  root at ubuntu:~# echo $?
  0
