Update for sudo cannot verify signature. This is one piece of software I don't want to update with unsigned code!

Ubuntu 8.04

Version 1.6.9p10-1ubuntu3.4:

W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net hardy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 5227BEBD68436DDF

Now what?

Give it some time. This problem usually solves itself. Allot of times it is just a server error, and it will work later on.

Why wouldn't Canonical build this into their product? I don't expect them to maintain keys for third party, but for their own (supported) stuff? kinda weak, no?

that didn't work. zika's post did, though. Thanks for responding.
