Hi,

As there are a few debian users on this list I thought one of you might know
whether debs from debian have corresponding signitures files to verify
integerity.  Also, if they do does apt use them to verify the packages?
I like being able to just install a package easily with a single apt-get but
I suddenly realised that I don't know if I can trust the mirror I'm using to
not have trojened debs.
