It sounds like you have multiple entries for Chrome in your sources list, but they point to different GPG key files (or one has a GPG key, the other does not). Remove a duplicate and run `apt update` and `apt upgrade` again. Also see the deb822 format at <https://wiki.debian.org/SourcesList>. In case this is Mint specific, see <https://forums.linuxmint.com/>. Jeff
