Having issues with the LMDE 64bit update manager.

I get this message when I try to update:


W: Ignoring file 'dropbox.list.save' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension
W: Ignoring file 'google-chrome.list.save' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension
W: GPG error: http://debian.linuxmint.com testing Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 07DC563D1F41B907 Christian Marillat <marillat@debian.org>


under 'Software Sources' in the update manager under the LinuxMint Tab I have checked main, upstream, imported and romeo

under the Other Software tab (still in Mint Update manager) I have:
http://debian.linuxmint.com/latest testing main contrib non-free
http://debian.linuxmint.com/latest/security testing/updates main contrib non-free
http://debian.linuxmint.com/latest/multimedia testing main non-free
http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main
http://linux.dropbox.com/ubuntu maverick main


my etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://packages.linuxmint.com/ debian main upstream import romeo
deb http://debian.linuxmint.com/latest testing main contrib non-free
deb http://debian.linuxmint.com/latest/security testing/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://debian.linuxmint.com/latest/multimedia testing main non-free



Whats up with the 'wrong file extensions' for dropbox and chrome??

And why the invaloid signature?

Also, the different sources in update manager and sources.list confuse me...


help!



thanks...

Here is one answer:

If you are wondering why chrome and dropbox are not in sources.list, it is because they are in sources.list.d as your first question shows.

For gpg error try
Not absolutely sure about the last one though, don't know if that is the correct keyserver for linuxmint.

tried that fix for the key, but I'm still getting the same GPG error. Strange..

the chrome/dropbox errors have disappeared after I tried the info from that link you posted though, thanks!

for the other error see this topic http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.p ... multimedia

Try this instead:

Hey thanks viking, I was getting one of those 'public key' errors, and the above fixed it.

As long as I've been coming to this forum for help, you and zerozero and a few other dudes have always been there for me and everyone else. Where would we be without ya?
