Public bug reported:

After creating a a virtual machine with vmbuilder, 'apt-get update'
produces the following error:

W: GPG error: http://archive.ubuntu.com lucid Release: The following
signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive
Automatic Signing Key <ftpmas...@ubuntu.com>

Work-a-round: change the url, of only the first line ('deb 
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid main restricted universe
') in /etc/apt/sources.list:
- from a general form: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
- to a country specific one: http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu

Then 'apt-get update' works as expected. Strange is however that right
after a succesfull update, restoring the original url does not break the
system.

It has probably to do with the fact that during the producing of the vm,
the country specific url is used (I'm not sure about this, but this is
an educated guess).
