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

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.

Thanks again,
