We basicly didnt think about the use-case of a local self-signed primary mirror.
Either we use apt-cacher-ng or we use debmirror to clone complete arch/suite
combinations.

Adding the primary_url a second time in the url-list and provide a key might
help for getting pbuilder work.

Currently we have an open issue that deboostrap ignores self-signed repos:
https://github.com/Linutronix/elbe/issues/107

Before this one is not fixed, we have no chance to build a solution for building
images from self-signed repos.

The hint, that adding the key to apt is helpful is indeed interesting for our
open issue ;)

Adding it to the pbuilder is IMHO no big deal and done in the pbuilderrc.

You can open an issue for this on github. But i don't want to extend the xml
schema for 2.0. And the key also needs to be added to the preseeding for the
initvm..
