Wait to see if PR https://github.com/nodejs/docker-node/pull/2415 achieves consensus and is landed. In this case [keys/node.keys](https://github.com/nodejs/docker-node/blob/main/keys/node.keys) is deleted and the issue is resolved automatically, and for any future changes.\n2. If an automated update is not approved and landed, then re-sync the key order.\n\nThis is a housekeeping exercise only. The order of the keys in [keys/node.keys](https://github.com/nodejs/docker-node/blob/main/keys/node.keys) does not affect their usage when building Docker images.\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/MikeMcC399","@type":"Person","name":"MikeMcC399"},"datePublished":"2026-07-17T14:37:35Z","url":"https://github.com/nodejs/docker-node/issues/2569"}
