Update Errors


I have Lubuntu 12.04 installed on an ASUS 1000h. Everything has been smooth sailing until I did a manual update using the terminal (apt-get). I got the errors that show in the screen shot. What do I do now.

Use another repo that is updated and find out from the other repo owners why this one errors out with BADSIG and what signature is current?

In addition to the Main Server I have tried two other mirrors with the same result. Where do I look for the current signature?

Are you telling me you ran out of mirrors to test?

With "find out from the other repo owners" I hoped to convey repos should be listed somewhere on the Ubuntu site and might include contact details.

No, I didn't run out of mirrors to test. Apprciate your efforts unSpawn.
For anyone who has the same problem, I solved it by entering the following code.

Code:
sudo apt-get clean
cd /var/lib/apt
sudo mv lists lists.old
sudo mkdir -p lists/partial
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
exit
