APT by default considers only signing keys in:

• file /etc/apt/trusted.gpg
• folder /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/

Signing keys in folder /usr/share/keyrings are ignored by default by APT, unless the signed-by keyword is used in APT sources files (i.e. in configuration file /etc/apt/sources.list or in configuration snippet drop-in folder /etc/apt/sources.list.d).

Example signed-by keyword use:

[signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/derivative.asc]

Example of complete deb line with signed-by keyword.

deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/derivative.asc] https://deb.kicksecure.com bullseye main contrib non-free
