Same problem in 12.04 LTS: cannot install updates from an unsigned
repository.
"apt-get upgrade" prompts, and lets the user decide whether to install
or not:
WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!
unsigned-package1 package2 etc.
Install these packages without verification [y/N]? y
Update-manager should have a similar behaviour:
- Either give the option to upgrade the package(s) without verifictaion
- Or upgrade the other (authenticated) packages, and tell the user that
the unauthenticated package(s) should be upgraded by running "apt-get
upgrade" at the command-line.
