Description:
On a Debian stretch system, I receive this warning when I run "apt update" after installing the mysql-apt-config package:

W: http://repo.mysql.com/apt/debian/dists/jessie/InRelease: Signature by key A4A9406876FCBD3C456770C88C718D3B5072E1F5 uses weak digest algorithm (SHA1)

How to repeat:
dpkg -i mysql-apt-config_0.6.0-1_all.deb
apt update

Suggested fix:
Use a stronger digest algorithm.

Fixed in repo configuration (changed to SHA256)
