Hi Amen, I thought I will build everything again using the octool before I started updating the wiki. But the script failed while adding repositories as the keyserver timed out. Here is the error I get:
--- $ ./octool -rsdpcalv [octool] Adding software repositories... Executing: gpg --ignore-time-conflict --no-options --no-default-keyring --homedir /tmp/tmp.1shYqj1VLk --no-auto-check-trustdb --trust-model always --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --primary-keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/inkscape_dev-stable.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/mc3man-trusty-media.gpg --keyserver hkp://ha.pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --recv-key 0xB01FA116 gpg: requesting key B01FA116 from hkp server ha.pool.sks-keyservers.net gpg: keyserver timed out gpg: keyserver receive failed: keyserver error --- After this I read a bunch of stuff about GPG keys and encryptions and I found that this command is basically trying to get something from the server. So I tried to ping the keyserver and that did not work: --- ping: unknown host hkp://ha.pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --- So then I tried to ping google to see if my internet was working. And that worked. So then just to be sure, I ran an apt-get update. And that started getting the headers from your repo: --- Get:1 http://packages.ros.org trusty InRelease [4,031 B] Ign http://packages.ros.org trusty InRelease Get:2 http://packages.ros.org trusty/main amd64 Packages [690 kB] Get:3 http://packages.ros.org trusty/main i386 Packages [689 kB] Ign http://packages.ros.org trusty/main Translation-en_IN Ign http://packages.ros.org trusty/main Translation-en --- So now I am wondering if I should just comment out that line in the octool script or does it absolutely need the key. I am woefully ignorant about encryption and I could read up if this is something I should understand before I proceed. So should I comment out that line that is getting the key or do something else?
