Hi, the third way is to go to the keyserver.ubuntu.com website, search for your keyid and copy the key to a text file for import locally...
1. go to http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xF1FCBACA7BE1F97B 2. copy the GPG block to a text file: key.txt 3. sudo apt-key add key.txt now things might work...
