I still got this error as of this morning on `apt-get update`:
W: GPG error: http://ftp.us.debian.org testing Release: The following
signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available:
NO_PUBKEY 010908312D230C5F
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo apt-key update
ERROR: Can't find the archive-keyring
Is the debian-keyring package installed?
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo apt-get install debian-keyring
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
debian-keyring is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 64 not upgraded.
I tried installing just the upgrade of apt and apt-utils without
verification but it didn't help. Same error. Is the relevant
key in some other package?
I finally got sick of waiting and answered 'Y' to dist-upgrade's question:
WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!
...
Install these packages without verification [y/N]? y
After that, I *still* get the same error for `apt-get update`:
W: There are no public key available for the following key IDs:
010908312D230C5F
Will there be some way to go back and verify package integrity
after this gets fixed? Reinstall these packages?
Thanks for looking into it....
Mark
