Can't reload Synaptic pkge manager due to W.GPG error

[nnjond]

Hi,
I want to install KDE 4.5.3 but I cant reload Synaptic:

W: GPG error: http://extras.ubuntu.com maverick Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY DB141E2302FDF932

Can you help me please?

W: GPG error: http://extras.ubuntu.com maverick Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY DB141E2302FDF932

You need to add the key.

gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv DB141E2302FDF932

followed by:

gpg --export --armor DB141E2302FDF932 | sudo apt-key add -

Note, that is a dash: >> - << after add above.

then run:

sudo apt-get update

I did the above last night and it didn't work. Synaptic shows that I have the key installed and in use but I still get the same error message. Can someone tell me which update causes this problem so that I can uncheck the box on my other computer?(I installed Kubuntu on it last night and don't want to screw up this machine until my other one is fixed.

Thanks,

Penny
