It happens during "Download installer components", before detecting the disks etc.

There is no /target yet.

This package contains the followwing keyring files:
/usr/share/keyrings/debian-ports-archive-keyring-removed.gpg
/usr/share/keyrings/debian-ports-archive-keyring.gpg

They seem to be missing from the installer initramfs:
