GPG error

#1 Post by frank56 »

W: GPG error: ftp://ftp.debian.org/ testing Release:
The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY <my key>

I solved this before but I keep getting this error. What are the correct steps to follow here? The solutions I have googled for some reason are not working. Frank

I'm getting a similar error. here's mine:

W: GPG error: http://www.debian-multimedia.org squeeze Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 07DC563D1F41B907
root@debian:/home/davek# apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
Package flashplugin-nonfree is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package flashplugin-nonfree has no installation candidate
root@debian:/home/davek#

what is the gpg key for Squeeze?

I solved my problem but, I don't know if i did it the right way. Here is the link to the steps I followed.


http://www.backports.org/dokuwiki/doku. ... structions

I took this step....gpg --keyserver hkp://subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 16BA136C
gpg --export 16BA136C | apt-key add -

where the 16ABA136C I put the last 8 digits that show up, when you do apt-get update or when you get gpg error message.

SERVER = name of a keyserver
KEY = full actual key number
KEY_PORTION = part of the full key number the keyserver returns

Note you can use the entire key instead of the key portion.

You know vinoman the last time I installed debian-multimedia keyring I went to the home page of debian-multimedia.org . About half way down the page was written this
The first package to install is debian-multimedia-keyring.
First download the debian-multimedia-keyring package.
Then under root or with sudo do the following :
"dpkg -i debian-multimedia-keyring_2008.10.16_all.deb" or "sudo dpkg -i debian-multimedia-keyring_2008.10.16_all.deb"
And voila.
