Thank you.

Of course, I wasn't implying it is. - I gave http://open.iabsis.com/debian/ as an example, but you can imagine any other orphaned repository where I find a .deb I like As the wiki says, you might need to hunt for the key. - the page you told me has the gpg invocation, but how to guess --keyserver and --recv-keys parameters value? As per 'man gpg', --recv-keys expects a key ID, which will the one apt complains about. For the server you can try one of the public servers. According to my gpg.conf I seem to be using pgp.mit.edu, but there are others. If the key is not on the keyservers a web search might turn out where to get it from, or you could just ask the providers of the software ;) Kind regards, Andrei -- http://wiki.debian.org/FAQsFromDebianUser Offtopic discussions among Debian users and developers: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic http://nuvreauspam.ro/gpg-transition.txt signature.asc Description: Digital signature

The only real answer to your question is: the repository provider should give you these details, especially the key ID (and ideally a fingerprint if there is a more or less secure way to transmit it, e.g HTTPS).

How to guess how to add the key of a repo (GPG, apt-key add,...)
Hi all I have to use a repo: http://open.iabsis.com/debian/ When adding it in my sources, apt complains about not having GPG key about it. Would you know how to guess the gpg invocation (server, key,...) in order to import it to apt? Thank you.
