Hi all, This issue seems to be created by 'synaptic'. If you you 'apt' in the terminal, you will be fine. If you use 'software-properties-gtk' to adjust repositories, you will be fine. The issue is created if you run 'synaptic' and then adjust repositories via 'Settings -> Repositories. A soon as you do this a file '/etc/apt/trusted.gpg' is created and it is this that is throwing everything off. Output: philwyett@ks-skywalker:~$ synaptic-pkexec ERROR:root:Cannot import UbuntuDrivers: No module named 'UbuntuDrivers' gpg: keybox '/etc/apt/trusted.gpg' created ERROR:root:Cannot import UbuntuDrivers: No module named 'UbuntuDrivers' gpg: keybox '/etc/apt/trusted.gpg' created It is the last line that is the issue. If you run 'software- properties-gtk' and adjust repositories, the file is not created. Quick remedy: sudo rm -f /etc/apt/trusted.gpg Now run 'synaptic' or 'apt' as usual. If you run 'synaptic', do not use the menu option 'Settings -> Repositories. This could probably do with a bug raising. Regards Phil -- Playing the game for the games sake.
