Public bug reported: In order to solve the error "This requires installing packages from unauthenticated sources." As user I need ubuntu to show me the error cases
Given an old installed package with an key expired When I run the Software Updater Then I get error about "This requires installing packages from unauthenticated sources." And info about the cause and solution *Right now we got only the error message with 2 options: - OK - doesn't help (just closes the window) - Settings... - opening Software & Update settings : doesn't help because don't know the root cause. * Searching in Internet leads to many results - many of them not good. * Doing from command line (so not user friendly for the common user): sudo apt-get update W: GPG error: http://download.opensuse.org Release: The following signatures were invalid: KEYEXPIRED 1437126969 So the OS knows the cause. It just have to be integrated in gui error message (eg with Details dropbox) . Then the user will go to Settings and fix the error. ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1500378 Title: Usability for update error: unauthenticated sources To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1500378/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
