No Problem, sorry for being so slow, but this pylint patchqueue creates
conflicts all over the place and needs to go in quickly.

Then we have to fix noauth.
BTW you could also not use noauth, and add trusted=yes directly into the
mirror url. That way it wouldnt stop checking all signatures, and only
check the relevant signatures.

Is noauth reuired to build ubuntu ?
We should make it possible to install the proper ubuntu key then.
Maybe we just need to install

https://packages.debian.org/buster/ubuntu-keyring
