[solved] Unknown error executing gpgv

#1 Post by subhuman »

hi @all,

i'm pretty sure it's not the first time i'm having this problem, but quite certain i am of my no longer recalling what the proper solution was. hence i dare bothering you (again):

after i dist-upgraded to weezy (though still sticking to the unstable/sid branch) i've been getting warning messages from apt:

Code: Select all

W: GPG error: http://www.deb-multimedia.org sid InRelease: Unknown error executing gpgv
W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net precise Release: Unknown error executing gpgv
W: GPG error: http://deb.opera.com stable Release: Unknown error executing gpgv
W: GPG error: ftp://ftp.deb-multimedia.org sid InRelease: Unknown error executing gpgv
W: GPG error: ftp://ftp.tu-graz.ac.at unstable InRelease: Unknown error executing gpgv
W: GPG error: ftp://ftp.de.debian.org unstable InRelease: Unknown error executing gpgv
what must i do to fix this? all keyring-related packages are in the latest version. (the ubuntu mirror is in the list because i don't give up hope that i2p will some day become useable, and opera because that's where my browser comes from.)

thx in advance

Maybe this command will show something useful:

Code: Select all

# apt-key update && apt-get update
DebianStable

Code: Select all

$ vrms

No non-free or contrib packages installed on debian!  rms would be proud.
