Another is truncated or missing Packages files which result from botched
`apt-get update` runs. If `apt-get update` downloads all files without
error, you should not see any mention of untrusted packages.

# Assuming of course, that all your sources are signed and you have all
# needed keys on your APT keyring (see `man apt-key`).
