Fix Ubuntu Apt error “public key is not available” GPG Keys

  • April 16, 2012

If you’ve ever used the a package or repository from the Ubuntu Personal Pakacge Archive, you may have receive an error when each time you use apt-get. The error looks something like this.

W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net lucid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY D8D75E403EBCE749

 

It’s a simple one line fix, the one line fetches the GPG key for the repository from keyserver.ubuntu.com:

apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys D8D75E403EBCE749

Once you’ve run this command, apt-get will no longer report errors with finding the correct GPG public key.

Just a heads up, if you do decide to enable OpenSSL so you can do encrypted MySQL replication. There are two bugs that will affect replication and the mysqldump command. They're as follows: Bug #24148 regression tests hang with SSL enabled http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=24148 http://lists.mysql.com/commits/17286 Bug #27669 mysqldump: Got error: 2026: SSL connection error when trying to connect http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=27669 http://lists.mysql.com/commits/24329 This may cause lots of problems with MySQL and SSL Replication using OpenSSL.
