Hi All,
Debian Buster, AMD64, KDE Desktop.
I installed a ppa using the following code:
***sudo add-apt-repository ppa:elmer-csc-ubuntu/elmer-csc-ppa*
This installed
*elmer-csc-ubuntu_ubuntu_elmer-csc-ppa.gpg*
in my /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d directory. So far so good.
But when I run apt-get update I get:
* E: The repository
'http://ppa.launchpad.net/elmer-csc-ubuntu/elmer-csc-ppa/ubuntu focal
Release' does not have a Release file.**
** N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely,
and is therefore disabled by default.**
** N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and
user configuration details.*
If I added the -s switch to add-apt-repository ie *sudo
add-apt-repository -s ppa:elmer-csc-ubuntu/elmer-csc-ppa ,*
I get :
*gpg: keybox '/tmp/tmpxocgqxov/pubring.gpg' created
gpg: /tmp/tmpxocgqxov/trustdb.gpg: trustdb created
gpg: key 89358ABF9FB7E178: public key "Launchpad PPA for Elmer CSC
ubuntu packaging" imported
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg: imported: 1
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.*
Apt-get update still errors out. I don't seem to have the gpg key
installed. How do I fix this problem.
