problem in using easy ubuntu

Carunkumar · 11-13-2006, 09:32 PM

when I try to install using easy ubuntu am getting the following error.
I got the same error when I tried using the command "sudo apt-get update" to update the file sources.list.

"W: GPG error: http://packages.freecontrib.org dapper Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY F120156012B83718
"

please help!

Does it stop you from installing/updating anything? Sounds to me that apt is just warning that it couldn't verify the key, but that error doesn't state that it would have stopped the job. Or did it?

If it keeps up, try Automatix. They do essentially the same thing, and are both pretty easy to use.

@b0uncer

I don't think the problem is with easyubuntu. I got the same error message when I install using apt-get and synaptic package manager. I tried to use libgtk2.0-dev it asked to add repositories. Even when I add repositories I get the same error message!
please help!
