I have been beating around the bush for solutions but nothing has worked yet please suggest something that would solve these errors.




What I've already tried:




  1. y-ppa-manager

  2. manually removing list and regenerating it.



So please don't mark duplicate for these methods and suggest something else.




After coming to know that apt can't handle more than 40 keys I started deleting ppa's and their keys from /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d



After doing that I updated apt-cache and my problems were solved.
