Apt-get Update GPG Key Errors and Fix

Running sudo apt-get upgrade, I started getting this error:

1	Reading package lists... Done

1	W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net intrepid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 313D312748A22A95

1	W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

Ah ha! But apt-get update is the command causing this problem.

The solution is to import this key from the gpg servers; I don’t know why this isn’t done automatically, but here is it:

1	sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 313D312748A22A95; gpg --export --armor 313D312748A22A95 \| sudo apt-key add -

Resulting in:

1
2
3
4
5
6

Executing: gpg --ignore-time-conflict --no-options --no-default-keyring --secret-keyring /etc/apt/secring.gpg --trustdb-name /etc/apt/trustdb.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 313D312748A22A95
gpg: requesting key 48A22A95 from hkp server keyserver.ubuntu.com
gpg: key 48A22A95: public key "Launchpad PPA for Filip Brcic" imported
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg: unchanged: 1
OK

Congrats! sudo apt-get update now works properly!

Ahhh. One more little annoyance solved. Now, to save this page to hard drive, for future reference when I have no internet!

Thanks. Synaptic has stopped complaining.

I thought you might like to know I received this error.

As Synaptic seems to have the key now, I don’t understand the error.

If you copy+paste the code from the article you MAY need to retype the “–” double dash. For some reason browser shows it as a special character.

Also – “sudo apt-key adv –recv-keys –keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 313D312748A22A95″ should be enough to add the key and not show the “signatures couldn’t be verified” message
