/etc/gnugpg.d/

[adrelanos]

What about having /etc/gnugpg.d/ where you can drop configuration files
just you can drop them into /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/?

For example someone could make a hkps distro package, get the
certificate into the correct place and drop a configuration file to use
the certificate.
