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 2BA7BC59D745C5EB
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

how do I solve this?

Try this,


gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 2BA7BC59D745C5EB
gpg --export --armor 2BA7BC59D745C5EB | sudo apt-key add -then

sudo apt-get update

Lets check the file permission

ls -l home/bionnaki/.gnupg/pubring.gpg
