[Bug 1851459] [NEW] debootstrap fails to create precise chroots: Release signed by unknown key

[You-Sheng Yang]

Public bug reported:

Creating precise, and probably all other EOL-ed series, chroot fails
with following error messages:

  $ sudo debootstrap precise target
  I: Retrieving InRelease 
  I: Retrieving Release 
  I: Retrieving Release.gpg 
  I: Checking Release signature
  E: Release signed by unknown key (key id 40976EAF437D05B5)
     The specified keyring /usr/share/keyrings/ubuntu-archive-keyring.gpg may be incorrect or out of date.
     You can find the latest Debian release key at https://ftp-master.debian.org/keys.html

Precise key 40976EAF437D05B5 was moved into /usr/share/keyrings/ubuntu-
archive-removed-keys.gpg[1][2] since ubuntu-keyring >= 2016.10.27, and
yet /usr/share/debootstrap/scripts/precise (symlinked to
/usr/share/debootstrap/scripts/gusty) is still using /usr/share/keyrings
/ubuntu-archive-keys.gpg, so it will certainly fail unless --keyring ...
is specified.
