lmde repositories error [Solved]

Post by corcaigher »

I always get the following error when running Synaptic: W: GPG error: http://debian.linuxmint.com testing Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 07DC563D1F41B907

Here are my sources:
deb http://packages.linuxmint.com/ debian upstream import main
deb-src http://packages.linuxmint.com/ debian upstream import main #Added by software-properties
deb http://debian.linuxmint.com/latest/security testing/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://debian.linuxmint.com/latest/multimedia testing main non-free
deb http://debian.linuxmint.com/latest testing main contrib non-free
deb-src http://debian.linuxmint.com/latest testing main contrib non-free

How do I correct this issue? What causes this?

You are likely missing the key for Debian Multimedia.

In Synaptic look for the package called debian-multimedia-keyring and install it. You'll get a warning about installing an unauthenticated package but ignore that. Refresh the package list in Synaptic and you should see no further errors.

why would he need the deb-multimedia-keyring when he doesn't have it in his sources.list?

if he had it there would be a line showing:
deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org/ testing main non-free

Instead the OP is using lmde repos.

This line contains Mint's snapshot of the multimedia repo...

Code: Select all

deb http://debian.linuxmint.com/latest/multimedia testing main non-free
As of UP4 it was still debian-multimedia, not sure if the repo for UP5 will be deb-multimedia or not.

debian-multimedia.org became deb-multimedia.org meanwhile.
Anyway this repo is snapshotted as "/latest/multimedia". The packages still are signed by deb-multimedia, so "debian-multimedia-keyring" is required to validate them.

It is not debian-multimedia because it is already installed. Something else is amiss.

Installed Maya so this is no longer an issue for me.
