Bug#329854: apt: 0.6.41 on ppc: GPG key "error"

[Wolfgang Pfeiffer <roto@gmx.net>]

Package: apt
Version: 0.5.4
Severity: normal

apt-get update with 0.6.41 results in this error:

Fetched 482B in 2s (219B/s)
Reading package lists... Done
W: GPG error: http://honk.physik.uni-konstanz.de mplayer/ Release: The
following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is
not available: NO_PUBKEY BDCE3370C88CEDF6 W: You may want to run
apt-get update to correct these problems

Here's the relevant part of the sources list:

deb http://honk.physik.uni-konstanz.de/~agx/linux-ppc/debian/ mplayer/
deb-src http://honk.physik.uni-konstanz.de/~agx/linux-ppc/debian/ mplayer/


Downgrading to apt_0.5.4 plus apt-utils_0.5.4 solves the problem.

Important perhaps that I couldn't update most of the packages for many
weeks due too dependency problems here; i.e. too many packages will be
removed if I do a 'apt-get dist-upgrade', without being replaced by
newer versions. Or if those to be removed are really useless then this
isn't made obvious enough for me.


Regards
Wolfgang
