Hello,

In general you can do:

apt-get install debian-archive-keyring

You might also want debian-keyring.

If you point at 3rd-party repositories you can do something like this
script:

$ cat ~/getkey.sh 
#!/bin/sh

gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv $1 && gpg --export  --armor $1 | apt-key add -

HTH,
j.
