Re: [LUG] Expired apt-get keys

 
Glad you sorted out your issues with apt sources.

dist-upgrade should still work but you may wish to upgrade to the different releases of Debian one at a time, e.g. go from squeeze to wheezy and then to jessie (and then stretch if going to testing).

This can be achieved by changing the values in your apt sources, doing apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade then rebooting (and make sure everything is OK) then update your apt sources to the next release and repeating the process.

Make sure you do an upgrade before dist-upgrade to be safe.

Folks - STAND DOWN!

I think I have fixed the above. After a reboot  one of the warnings resolved and after more googling I found that debian-multimedia.org has been moved to deb-multimedia.org

http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-multimedia-maintainers/2012-May/026678.html

and I added an apparently  required public key from:-

http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x5C808C2B65558117

Sorry to waist anyone’s time! I would still welcome comments on dist-upgrade option however?

Many thanks

Hello Folks!

Yes - I am still alive! (have not posted here in yonks). I hope you are all well :-)

So, I have an old version of debian on a fairly modern laptop.

roly@Nemisis:~/fixingApt-Get$ cat /etc/debian_version
6.0.3

I was trying to install a package and got the following messages when I did apt-get update...

After seeing these warning messages I attempted to carry on regardless and install the package  I wanted. apt-get install failed with a bunch of other error messages (which I now cannot reproduce).

and tried to update the local keyring with a new key (nb. I dont fully understand what i'm writing here!)

I then tried apt-key update. This made no difference. Identical warning messages and unable to install new packages.

I then used apt-key add to add the key found at mozilla.debian.net/archive.asc

I am now able to install packages and the software appears to work as anticipated. However, when performing an apt-get update I still get the following warning messages. It appears expired keys are no longer a problem...

I was intending to use the dist-upgrade method to upgrade the entire system, which is why i figured it wise to sort these warnings before making such an attempt. Perhaps this is not the best way of upgrading however?

Thanks in advance for any help/adivce.
Best wishes
Roly :-)
