Puzzled: synaptic wants to install 'unauthenticated' ssh (and others)
List, I must have done something odd or, maybe, missed a Debian
release certificate change, or something. But I'm not sure how to
reinstate security for software upgrades or installations.
Wheezy 64, using synaptic, on a laptop with a pretty normal set of
desktop applications. Synaptic marked a few items as 'upgradeable',
maybe a dozen, including openssh and iceweasel. Asked synaptic to
apply the upgrades, and it replies with a text box warning that some
upgrades cannot be authenticated. Among those are openssh client and
server, and iceweasel; the list of unauthenticatable items pretty much
matches the list of items that synaptic has marked as upgradeable.
The last changes I did were to install (a few minutes before) a 386
architecture, through apt and synaptic, without encountering any
authentication issues. In the meantime I've declined any more
changes. How best should I get back to a state where synaptic's
updates are authenticated?
Grateful for any pointers,
regards, Ron
