Title:
  apt-key net-update should use trusted.gpg.d/

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  apt-key net-update for the new world order

  /etc/apt/trusted.gpg is not longer preffered location for key updates.

  Instead, individual opengpg packets of exported public keys should be
  placed in /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d

  Debian has already migrated to placing the keys there.

  To comply with /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d structure, instead of updating
  the keys in the /etc/apt/trusted.gpg, imho apt-key net-update should
  download and place a /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/ubuntu-archive-
  netupdate.gpg key.
