I did a set of google searches looking for the answer to this
question, but didn't find any good ones. Since I believe the
community may benefit from my experience, I thought I'd post it.
While updating patches on ubuntu 10.04 on a staging puppet
environment, I noticed the apt key for puppetlabs had expired. Rather
than blindly installing a keyring package that may not be verified, I
decided to verify manually. Here are the steps:
"apt-get clean && apt-get update" yeilds
...
Get:2 http://apt.puppetlabs.com lucid Release [8,845B]
...
W: GPG error: http://apt.puppetlabs.com lucid Release: The
following signatures were invalid: KEYEXPIRED 1341792832
"apt-key list" shows:
...
/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/pl-keyring.gpg
-------------------------------------
pub 4096R/4BD6EC30 2010-07-10 [expired: 2012-07-09]

Key) <i...@puppetlabs.com>
"gpg --recv-key 4BD6EC30" says:

"gpg --list-key --fingerprint 4BD6EC30" reports:

Key fingerprint = 47B3 20EB 4C7C 375A A9DA E1A0 1054 B7A2
4BD6 EC30
uid Puppet Labs Release Key (Puppet Labs Release
Key) <i...@puppetlabs.com>
I checked and fingerprint matches the one listed at
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/1/wiki/Downloading_Puppet#Verifying+Puppet+Downloads.
After running, "apt-key adv --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys
4BD6EC30", apt-get update runs without error.
note to moderators: I don't know if this information has already been
posted, but just in case it hasn't, here it is. It may not be
encountered by others depending on timing of their installation/
configuration.
