F7 apt-get complaints about missing keys (The Fix)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I installed F7 a few days ago. First thing post install was to use Yum to 
install Apt, and Synaptic, which I prefer. At the same time as installing 
these with Yum, a gpg public key was installed (4f2a6fd2-3f9d9d3b), and this 
in in /etc/apt/gpg, and is shown as a link 
to /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora.

There are a bunch of keys in /etc/pki/rpm-gpg. RPM-GPG-KEY, RPM-GPG-KEY-beta, 
RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora, RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-rawhide, RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-test, and 
RPM-GPG-KEY-rawhide.

When I run apt-get update, it complains about missing keys, says it's fetching 
them, then fails to import them, but there is no problem installing the 
updates, and the gpg check runs to completion before installing the updates, 
which install with no problems.

Incidentally I found another public key in /etc/apt/gpg, which is a locked 
file, and again is a link, and pointing 
to /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-extras, which of course does not exist 
for F7, as everything is now in, and excuse the pun, the "everything" repo. 
The file is (gpg-pubkey-1ac70ce6-41beeef).

I started this post before finding the fix, but have continued with it as 
someone else may have this problem.

The fix is to remove the above locked file, as it's unwanted. To verify, I put 
the file in a new directory, and ran apt-get update. No complaints now. Took 
the file back out of the directory, and ran apt-get update again, and the 
complaints about missing keys are back.

I suppose I should report this as a bug related to Apt, as this public key 
ponting to "extras" should not be there.

I havn't posted bug reports before, so any pointers how to go about this would 
be welcome.

Nigel.
