5.8.4...5.8.5

Future rotation of the APT signing key

In preparation for a future rotation of our package signing keys, the 5.8.5 DEB package will, on install, import a new
trusted APT key:

pub   4096R/382E94DE 2016-06-29 [expires: 2022-06-28]
uid                  Datadog, Inc <package@datadoghq.com>

During the package install, the DEB package will output the following:

Prepare Datadog Agent keys rotation
  Add the new 'Datadog, Inc <package@datadoghq.com>' key to the list of APT trusted keys. ... OK

The signing key of the Agent hasn't changed yet but will be switched to this new key in a future release.
