Dotdeb packages are now signed!

July 11th, 2010 | by Guillaume Plessis |

After many requests from several users and after many months of promise, the Dotdeb repositories are GPG-signed. Yes, you can now get rid of the annoying “WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!” message!

Waiting for a dotdeb-keyring package, you just have to get the appropriate file by hand and add it to your trusted keys’ keyring :


gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-key 89DF5277
gpg -a --export 89DF5277 | sudo apt-key add -

I hope you’ll enjoy it.

    Hi have a problem,

    i added in the /etc/apt/sources.list

    deb http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all
    deb-src http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all

    when i do apt-get update i have this error :

    W: GPG error: http://packages.dotdeb.org stable Release: Les signatures suivantes n’ont pas pu être vérifiées car la clé publique n’est pas disponible : NO_PUBKEY E9C74FEEA2098A6E

    any idea please ?

    @amine : just fetch the GnuPG key and add it to your APT keyring, as explained in the above post.

    Hello,

    Great. With these signatures, I (or even my customers) can now upgrade directly from Virtualmin panel.

    Thank you very much.

    If it doesn’t work first, you may have to open the 11371 port as I did.

    Bonjour,

    Merci pour la signature des paquets.
    Pour chipoter est il vraiment nécessaire d’inscrire “sudo” avant le apt-key add ?

    Pour ceux qui utilisent la puissance de root sans autre forme de procès ça peut être perturbant ;)

    I got the following error:
    W: GPG error: http://php53.dotdeb.org stable Release: The following signatures couldn’t be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY E9C74FEEA2098A6E
    W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

    After trying the above I got:
    gpg: keyserver timed out
    gpg: keyserver receive failed: keyserver error

    and fixed everything with:
    wget http://packages.dotdeb.org/dotdeb.gpg && apt-key add dotdeb.gpg && rm dotdeb.gpg

    @petr : it’s back. Sorry. You could use keys.gnupg.net to receive the key instead.

    @vixns : Please use keys.gnupg.net tu get the key.

    Note: if your system doesn’t have the gpg command, the package to get it is called gnupg. Since it took me several hours to figure this out, I figured I should post this here to save any fellow newbs some time.

    Hey
    The key isnt found with your guide! The key doesnt exist in the database

    Wow people really do not read anything these days.

    The error was “keyserver timed out” doh !! So for the newbies with no education that means the keyserver is having a issue not “key not found”.
