..so now I get to decide if I want to brave current debian unstable,
compile from source, or wait.


The result of your suggestions:

pub  1024D/0E9FF879  created: 2000-09-05 expires: 2001-09-05 trust: -/u
sub  1024g/2EEAB976  created: 2000-09-05 expires: never
(1)  Darxus <Darxus@ChaosReigns.com>

I did then try changing the expiration on the pramary key, and it still
didn't work.
