-The following standard test keys are currently included:
-
-testkey -- a generic key for packages that do not otherwise specify a key.
-platform -- a test key for packages that are part of the core platform.
-shared -- a test key for things that are shared in the home/contacts process.
-media -- a test key for packages that are part of the media/download system.
-
-These test keys are used strictly in development, and should never be assumed
-to convey any sort of validity. When $BUILD_SECURE=true, the code should not
-honor these keys in any context.
