No_pubkey, I thought I knew how to do this

[lindsay7]

Solved, I changed permissions on the file /.gnupg/pubring.gpg from root to username (me)



I am getting this error when I try to add a key. Can someone tell me what I need to do.


stevepoulton@stevepoulton-laptop:~$ gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 60D11217247D1CFF
gpg: requesting key 247D1CFF from hkp server keyserver.ubuntu.com

gpg: no writable keyring found: eof

Now I am getting this error when I try to fix this,

chown: cannot access `/home/stevepoulton/.gnupg/pubring.conf': No such file or directory

in terminal try this:

then this:


gpg --export --armor 60D11217247D1CFF | sudo apt-key add -
