hi all,

i got an GPG error when i reinstall my ubuntu 8.10

<error>
W: GPG error: http://sg.archive.ubuntu.com intrepid-updates Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com>
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
</error>

this was in fact done in sudo apt-get update thus the suggestion from the terminal makes no sense.

i have read

but there is no complete answer to it.

below is my
cat /etc/apt/sources.list
