A successful update always fixed it.
Another is truncated or missing Packages files which result from botched `apt-get update` runs. If `apt-get update` downloads all files without error, you should not see any mention of untrusted packages. # Assuming of course, that all your sources are signed and you have all # needed keys on your APT keyring (see `man apt-key`).
