apt - "The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 16126D3A3E5C1192"


$ sudo apt-get update
W: A error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used. GPG error: http://extras.ubuntu.com maverick Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 16126D3A3E5C1192
W: Failed to fetch http://extras.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/Release
W: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Option 1


From here:


sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-extras-keyring

Option 2

Summary:


Open the terminal and run the following commands:


gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 3E5C1192
gpg --export --armor 3E5C1192 | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
