Hi again, switching to installation shell, and doing a
chroot /target apt install gnupg2 exit exit allows me to complete the installation, when continuing with the installation step preparing installation sources after this. The /var/log/syslog from the installation system shows the following messages before doing this: Apr 5 19:09:46 main-menu[2796]: (process:23507): 2018-04-05 19:09:37 URL:http://software.ubuntu.man-da.de/software/key.gpg [3121/3121] -> "/target/tmp/_fetch-url_key0.pub.24311" [1] Apr 5 19:09:46 main-menu[2796]: (process:23507): E: gnupg, gnupg2 and gnupg1 do not seem to be installed, but one of them is required for this operation A few lines above there is also the message: Apr 5 19:09:38 apt-setup: warning: /usr/lib/apt-setup/generators/60local returned error code 255; discarding output Kind regards, Lars -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to gnupg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754075 Title: apt-setup uses apt-key but probably should not anymore Status in apt-setup package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gnupg package in Ubuntu: New Status in gnupg2 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In di if the kernel is in a private PPA we seed di using d-i apt-setup/local0/key string http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=<key> this used to work in xenial, but in bionic this fails and therefore apt update fails in base-installer.
