Apt::Key upper cases the key

[janschumann]

For installing mariadb on ubuntu I tried the following resource:

apt::source { 'mariadb':
  location   => 'http://mirror2.hs-esslingen.de/mariadb/repo/5.5/ubuntu',
  release    => 'precise',
  repos      => 'main',
  key        => '0xcbcb082a1bb943db',
  key_server => 'hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80',
}

This fails because the key will be upper cased in key.pp

 $upkey = upcase($key)

I fixed it by using the parameter $key instead. Should I contribute this change? @see janschumann/puppetlabs-apt@9ab5da3

Or can I work around it otherwise?

[janschumann]

Of course I would add/fix tests if this change would be accepted.

If you remove the 0x it'll work but I agree, it should work with or without it. I'll make sure ensure that #212 includes the necessary code and tests to make sure ensure 0x qualified keys work.

@daenney thanks. So I´ll close this.
