Hi, I thanks for you suggestions.
I tried the faq but while importing the multimedia key, I get following message ------------- [code] gpg --keyserver wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net --recv-keys 07DC563D1F41B907 && apt-key add /root/.gnupg/pubring.gpg && apt-get update gpg: requesting key 1F41B907 from hkp server wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net gpg: key 1F41B907: "Christian Marillat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" not changed gpg: Total number processed: 1 gpg: unchanged: 1 gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found. [/code] ----------- After this when I do apt-get update again, I get the same message --------- [code] Hit http://ftp.de.debian.org testing/main Sources/DiffIndex Hit http://ftp.de.debian.org experimental/main Packages/DiffIndex Hit http://ftp.de.debian.org experimental/main Sources/DiffIndex Fetched 5752B in 10s (528B/s) Reading package lists... Done W: GPG error: http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 07DC563D1F41B907 W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems [/code] --------- Any idea, what is the problem, or how I can get rid of it ? I also tried downloading the key manually, and trying to export with gpg to a file, but I get the same message. regards, Hardik Andrew Sackville-West wrote: > On Wed, Jan 10, 2007 at 03:43:00PM -0800, rangalo wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I am a newbie at using apt-get.
