Hello,

I used to know how to do this but seem to have forgotten. When I do an aptitude update I get this:

W: GPG error: http://www.debian-multimedia.org etch Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 07DC563D1F41B907

I seem to remember adding the key to a local file but don't quite remember...

I went online but didn't find the help I need. Can someone please jog my memory?

Many Thanks,

ab

Hi Ab you have 3 options here

1) you can run apt-get and get that like this

CODE
# apt-get --allow-unauthenticated  install debian-multimedia-keyring

the --allow-unauthenticated just means you wont get a gpg error cos it tells it not to check for it ...... the debian-multimedia-keyring is the gpg key for debian-multimedia.org

2) Second option .... you always look at error message ... here its 07DC563D1F41B907 so you would run

CODE
# gpg --keyserver hkp://wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net --recv-keys 07DC563D1F41B907


next command ..

CODE
# gpg --armor --export 07DC563D1F41B907 | apt-key add -



3rd way

CODE
$ wget http://www.debian-multimedia.org/pool/main/d/debian-multimedia-keyring/debian-multimedia-keyring_2007.02.14_all.deb

then
CODE
$ su
# dpkg -i debian-multimedia-keyring_2007.02.14_all.deb


very important you should have gnupg it will make entering gpg easier
CODE
# apt-get install gnupg


hope that this helps ...
