apt-get update gets gpgv error

2006-08-16 Thread aladdin
When I run apt-get update, I get this error, after having gotten an error 
because it couldn't
find a file in /var/lib/apt/lists/partial, which I "touch"'d to make exist.

W: GPG error: ftp://debian.lcs.mit.edu testing Release: Unknown error executing 
gpgv
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

If one just deletes all the files in /var/lib/apt/lists, will apt automatically 
rebuild them?

Thanks,
anw

Most probably, you don't have gpg installed, or can't be reached.

I don't know, but I'd expect an update to regenerate them.
