Afternoon, Thanks for your quick reply. Actually, the content of my /etc/apt/sources.list file is: deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main contrib non-free deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile etch/volatile main contrib non-free deb http://ftp.esat.net/mirrors/volatile.debian.net/debian-volatile etch/volatile main contrib non-free deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free deb http://www.fiaif.net/dist ./
If I understand what you mean, it should be like this: deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main contrib non-free deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile etch/volatile main contrib non-free deb http://ftp.esat.net/mirrors/volatile.debian.net/debian-volatile etch/volatile main contrib non-free deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian etch main contrib non-free deb http://www.fiaif.net/dist ./ Is it correct? Do you recommend me to add more URL for getting security updates? Many thanks for your help.

You may have noticed that Lenny was released this weekend. It seems to me that your /etc/apt/sources.list is probably not set up correctly and that your "security update" is actually a full upgrade to the new stable release. The "no public key" error would confirm that. Please check if your sources.list refers to 'stable' instead of to the codename of the release you want to have installed, which would be 'etch'. If you have not yet actually upgraded any packages, just replace 'stable' by 'etch' in your sources.list, run 'apt-get update', and your system should be fine again. If you do want to upgrade to Lenny, I suggest to first read the Release Notes. Cheers, FJP -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
