hi, i've been searching for a solution to my update problem (sorry if i crosspost).

i initially used the stock sources.list and i thought of using a fresh one. both would give the message:

W: GPG error: http://security.ubuntu.com dapper-security Release: The following signatures

were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key

<ftpmaster@ubuntu.com>

when i do a "sudo apt-get update".

i've tried doing a:

gpg --keyserver hkp://subkeys.pgp.net --recv-key 437D05B5
gpg --export --armor 437D05B5 | sudo apt-key add -

also. i've searched the forum but i can't seem to find the proper solution to this. i want

to upgrade to edgy but i'm holding back because i don't want any kinks before the upgrade.

here's my current sources.list:

# Automatically generated sources.list
# http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/
#
# If you get GPG errors with this sources.list, locate the GPG key in this file
# and run these commands (where KEY is replaced with that key)
#
# gpg --keyserver hkp://subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys KEY
# gpg --export --armor KEY | sudo apt-key add -

just want to let those who follow this thread, my problem has been fixed. apparently the gpg key at security.ubuntu.com has been updated judging from the timestamp. so i did a "sudo apt-get update" and no errors!
