Hi all,

I've had the same problem for 2 months now and couldn't find a solution until I 
read this post:

Solution that worked for me on Ubuntu Hardy v8.04:
1) Open your terminal.
2) Add this line: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 
(old key number | error key number) and tap the "Enter | Command" key.
3) Type your root password when asked. (This is a root level action.)
4) New key is automatically updated and installed. Verify by looking at 
"Authentication tab" . (Open "Synaptic Package Manager". >Settings 
>Repositories >Authentication Tab.)
5) Once verified, close the 'Repositories Dialog Box', then click the "Reload" 
button on your toolbar in 'Synaptic'. You shouldn't get any errors provided 
you've updated all your "error keys".
6) Close "Synaptic Package Manager".
7) Open "Update Manager" and click on the button that says "Check". Now both 
applications will have read and updated all your repository server lists 
without any GPG errors.

NOTE: Repeat above process for each key error until all are updated. (I
don't know if you can run the old key numbers sequentially in the
terminal or not in one command line (i.e... XXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXX etc.). I only had one error key to update personally.

In my case, authentication tab in Synaptic verified/showed the new
update, the error no longer came up, and all is good!

HTH........
