[Bug 897741] Re: GPG error while downloading package lists

[Alessandro Menti]

Thanks for your input.

The error you experienced is due to the fact that, when you tried to
download the updated package lists with "sudo apt-get update", they got
corrupted during the download.

Could you please open a terminal, type the commands
sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/*
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/apt/lists/partial
(do not worry if they return errors) and try running "sudo apt-get update" again? Thanks!

** Summary changed:

- invalid sihgnature
+ GPG error while downloading package lists

** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
