EXPKEYSIG error and fix

[fehlix]

Thanks for the explanation. Appears to me that this might be a valuable piece of information for the FAQ / Wiki / User Manual as well. Greetings, and have a nice week, Joe

Yes, and probably needs to be a bit "end-user" tweaked also to make it even a bit simpler re the verification process for those "emergency" download fixes. But anyway, good you raised that point... I'm on the gpg usage "simplification" process for the Wiki anyway ... let's see whether I can scribble down so,e stuff "un-encrypted"

3 steps, in a terminal

Or with one liner ;=):

Code: Select all

sudo -v ; wget 'https://download.tuxfamily.org/antix/releases/antix-archive-keyring.asc' -O- | sudo apt-key add - ; sudo apt-get update

Can this post be made a sticky at the top of the MX Help forum, or added to Tips&Tricks, or both? This issue is coming up frequently, whenever anyone's just installed MX/antiX and is trying to let the update manager do its thing and run the initial post-installation updates.

Thanks. (And thanks, anticapitalista for the solution and fehlix for making it easier to implement!)
