sudo apt update

[Member calciumsodium]

I am trying to do sudo apt update and I am getting invalid signatures. Hence, I can’t update. I also tried changing to different repos and still getting invalid signatures. The other ones I tried include Chemnitz, Germany; Madison, WI; and Chicago, Il. Each time with an invalid signature. Is there something going on?

Thanks

I had to reinstall antiX 19.1 32-bit and getting this invalid signature error when I tried sudo apt update. Then I also tried reinstalling antiX 19.3 32-bit and also getting this invalid signature error when I tried to sudo apt update.

I just did an update/upgrade to test what you say.
Mine is working fine.
I’m using the US/Lenexa, KS antiX mirror, if that helps.

I changed to the US Lenexa, KA repo, and I still get this error.

I get this invalid signature error only after a fresh install of either antiX 19.1 or 19.3. This is a recent thing. Because two days ago, I did a fresh install of antiX 19.1 and did sudo apt update with no problem after that gdebi error with zzzFM 32-bit.

I also tried both methods suggested by @anticapitalista in this post. Both methods did not work for me.

Try this.

Launch a terminal and do
wget http://repo.antixlinux.com/buster/pool/main/a/antix-archive-keyring/antix-archive-keyring_20019.3.14_all.deb
This downloads the keyring. Now you install it.
sudo apt install ./antix-archive-keyring_20019.3.14_all.deb
after this see if updating the package list works.
sudo apt update

Hi @Xecure,

Your suggestion did not work for me.

I also saw that @lonegunmen and @JohnWu also are having problems.

Hi @Xecure,

I have to make a correction. Your suggestion works! I tried it again. The first time, I must have forgotten to do the second step.

Thank you. I was getting frustrated.
