Sure, here it is, albeit the command is run at a time when I'm fairly certain
that at the time my lists was synched with the repository, ie I had already
done an apt-get update that didn't checksum:
henry@ubuntu ~ $ sudo apt-get update -o Debug::pkgAcquire::Auth=true

I also tried manually verifying the signatures with gpg, although I'm not
familiar with gpg's output:
