    Badsig

    Hello,

    I've been getting, for quite a long time, the following sort of Badsig messages (several of them) when updating.

    I read several threads here & none helped. I also followed this: http://blog.drewwithers.com/2009/12/...or-badsig.html

    & what it did is change the errors to:

    Code:
    W: GPG error: http://debs.slavino.sk testing Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY EC3068F0E9C5D7EF

    E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
    Help is greatly appreciated

    Update: the GPG error was fixed with:
    Code:
    gpg --recv-keys
    gpg --export EC3068F0E9C5D7EF | sudo apt-key add -
    but what about the others?

    Re: Badsig

    You apparently have some repositories added that are going 404. If you know how, edit your /etc/apt/sources.list file and remove the offending repository entries. If that doesn't make sense, please post the output of

    Code:
    cat /etc/apt/sources.list
    Thanks!

    Thanks corman

    I solved the remastersys error by following the new instructions here: http://www.geekconnection.org/remastersys/ubuntu.html

    & the Natty errors by removing their entries.

    Al that remains now is the Opera error which I'm searching for its solution.

    Thanks again
