Hi  --

 Two thread are currenttly going on referring to a bug when a user
issues apt-get update. It has to do with a failure ofsigning the
update with a cryptographics key.

 The names of the two threads are:

bad breezy-security gpg signature?
Any idea what this Synaptic message means?

 There's abug report here
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/24234

 It describesthis as a Breezy problem. In an effort to better
understand the issue an contribute to the solution, I'd like ask if
anyone is having this problem with Hoary? I'm having problems on
Hoary, not Breezy.

 Also, I noticed that these problems began after libheimdal was updated.

 Would anyone confirm this?

 TIA

 Henry
