Public bug reported:

Reloading repositories with synaptic generates "W: A error occurred
during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the
previous index files will be used. GPG error: http://archive.ubuntu.com
precise Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG
40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key
<ftpmas...@ubuntu.com>"

The problem then persists in Update Manager, Synaptic and apt-get
update.

Problem is fixed using:
# apt-get clean
# cd /var/lib/apt
# mv lists lists.old
# mkdir -p lists/partial
# apt-get clean
# apt-get update

At this point using Update manager or apt-get update generates no
errors, the error returns when reloading with Synaptic.
