Thanks Ian, I had installed the debian-keyring package whereas what I
needed was the debian-archive-keyring package. I think the problem is
now fixed.

I doubt the key in question is on the keyservers. It's located at
http://ftp-master.debian.org/ziyi_key_2006.asc

Don't ask about the name, elmo has a fascination with actresses.

[SLUG] apt-get update and pgp keys

2006-04-13 Thread Michael Lake

Hi all

I'm trying to get correct keys into the debian keyring so that I can verify 
packages from apt-get sources
and I'm having some problems. The procedure below was worked out by googling on 
the warning message from apt-get.
Basically one needs to find some site that has a key for the missing packages I 
presume.

~$ sudo apt-get update
Get:1 http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au testing Release.gpg [189B]
Hit http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au testing Release 
Ign http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au testing Release 
Hit http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au testing/main Packages

Get:2 http://ftp.wa.au.debian.org testing Release.gpg [189B]
Hit http://ftp.wa.au.debian.org testing Release
etc
Reading package lists... Done
W: GPG error: http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au testing Release: The following 
signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: 
NO_PUBKEY 010908312D230C5F
W: GPG error: http://ftp.wa.au.debian.org testing Release: The following 
signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: 
NO_PUBKEY 010908312D230C5F
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

So I look for keyservers like this:

~$ host -l pgp.net | grep www
!!! keys.at.pgp.net MX host li04.adis.at does not exist
www.at.pgp.net. A   195.64.0.35
www.au.pgp.net. A   128.232.0.23
binwww.pgp.net. A   128.232.0.23

pick one .

~$ gpg --keyserver http://www.au.pgp.net --recv-keys 010908312D230C5F
gpg: requesting key 2D230C5F from http server www.au.pgp.net
gpgkeys: key 010908312D230C5F not found on keyserver
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
gpg: Total number processed: 0

If it was found I'd then do this:

$ gpg --export -a 2D230C5F | sudo apt-key add -
$ apt-get update

What am I doing wrong ? I have tried a few keyservers but all reply with the 
same message.
