General Support - GPG errors again

Titel: GPG errors again

When I did an apt-get update today I got this -

Code:

W: GPG error: http://kanotix.com sid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY FB1A399A71409CDF

W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

I've tried reinstalling kanotix-keyring which was one of the things updated yesterday when I last DU'd.
I've also tried doing

Code:

gpg --keyserver wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net --recv-keys FB1A399A71409CDF

followed by

Code:

apt-key add /root/.gnupg/pubring.gpg

But I'm still getting the error.

This worked for me:

Code:

gpg --keyserver wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net --recv-keys 71409CDF && apt-key add /root/.gnupg/pubring.gpg

Yes, that worked for too but I had to su to root as sudo wouldn't work which might be why my previous attempts didn't work.

unless manually set up there is no sudo in kanotix, afaik (big, fat security hole)

P.S.: "big, fat security hole" meaning sudo, *not* kanotix' lack of its setup

I did set up sudo manually and I do read quite a lot that it's a security hole but I also read a lot that it's perfectly safe when set up correctly.
To be honest I don't know how secure it is for me but I've never had any problems so far.
I have it set up in sudoers for my user rather than a wheel/admin group and there are no other users so should there be any problem?

well, maybe my posting was biased by what ubuntu does: afaik they allow sudo for any command for any user, which is a big fat hole. If set up carefully (what ever that means I'm in no position to advise) I guess it's alright

Yes it was ubuntu that first got me onto sudo and I found it very convenient but I have been worried by some of the scare stories.
I did also add a line to sudoers so that it asks for the password every time, as opposed to the ubuntu way of the password staying active for 15 minutes or whatever it is.
I am actually looking at the commands I use and thinking of limiting it further to only be used with more common commands I use.

Ok this works to fix the problem but is this magic incantation required to be done by all the plebes here? I thought the kanotix-keyring package should look after this?

Is there any documentation on what the kanotix-keyring packages are/do?
