    GPG error: http://extras.ubuntu.com precise Release

    There have been several questions around GPG errors, all with a similar solutions that involve cleaning out the lists file. I have not had any success with that approach and looking for either what I'm doing wrong or what I might try next.
    I am running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

    ubuntuBB:~$ sudo apt-get clean
    ubuntuBB:~$ cd /var/lib/apt
    ubuntuBB:/var/lib/apt$ sudo mv lists list.cb
    ubuntuBB:/var/lib/apt$ sudo mkdir -p lists/partial
    ubuntuBB:/var/lib/apt$ sudo apt-get clean
    ubuntuBB:/var/lib/apt$ sudo apt-get update
    ...
    Reading package lists... Done
    W: GPG error: http://extras.ubuntu.com precise Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 16126D3A3E5C1192




    ubuntuBB:/var/lib/apt$ sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* -vf
    ubuntuBB:/var/lib/apt$ sudo apt-get update
    ...
