I am indeed looking at the wrong key on the key server.  Nevertheless,
there is still a problem.

The user is instructed to √erify the signature of the download, but the
information about who it's signed by is misleading.  The key that signs
the signature for releases >= 26.1 is not available as far as I can tell.
