etch - gpg no_pubkey error when running apt-get update
I'm running an etch ppc system and get the following error when running
apt-get update:
W: GPG error: http://secure-testing.debian.net etch/security-updates
Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the
public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 946AA6E18722E71E
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
I've googled around and gather that apt-get now uses gpg for signing. I
had gpg installed already, so following the advice from one post I found
I ran 'apt-get install debian-keyring' followed by gpg --import
debian-keyring.gpg, debian-keyring.pgp and debian-role-keys.gpg. This
installed loads of keys. I re-ran aptget update but the error still
occurs. I then found another post at debian-administration.org saying
to run 'gpg --keyserver keyring.debian.org --recv' followed by the last
8 digits of the key required. However doing that it just told me there
was no such key available.
What am I doing wrong?
