i know i'm a little late, but i just wanted to post that i was not able to find a pgp key for the OOo repository either. I'm assuming they dont have one.

I haven't found the PGP key.
I've just de-select the repository from the "Source" list.

Sorry, I don't have the solution

The answer is on
https://launchpad.net/~openoffice-pkgs/+archive/ppa

I got the key from
http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pk...D11217247D1CFF
(note: I had to open port 11371 outbound on my firewall)

and imported it as per
https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging...e%20easy%20way

Ok, but my recomendation is a different way to solve the PGP Keys problem.

Fixes the ppa links and adds the keys required!

The key can be found here:

http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-T...10-96449.shtml

Scroll down to this paragraph and follow instructions:

Right click HERE and "Save Link As..." the key file on your desktop. Go to the fourth tab, "Authentication", click the "Import Key File" button, navigate to the location were you've just saved the key file (File System/home/YOURUSERNAME/Desktop) and double click it. You will immediately see a new entry called "247D1CFF 2009-01-21 Launchpad PPA for OpenOffice.org Scribblers".
