    Signatures are invalid for Extras Repo

    Starting yesterday my netbook has been giving me errors when I attempt to perform the recommended upgrades.

    When I go to the command line and type "sudo apt-get update", after listing some repositories, I'll suddenly get this.


    W: GPG error: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com oneiric Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com>
    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 oneiric Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 16126D3A3E5C1192 Ubuntu Extras Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com>

    W: Failed to fetch http://extras.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/oneiric/Release

    W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

    Do I have a bad repo or something? This netbook isn't used much, and I try not to load anything but stable packages. Of the repos I have, I didn't see anything like an "extra" repo.

    I know the question will be asked to list the repos that it's accessing. How do I do that?

    Thanks!

    Re: Errors in Upgrading

    Changing the server from "US" to "Main" didn't do anything.

    However deleting the key, then reinstalling it seemed to work.

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

      I have noticed that in some cases changing servers does, indeed, produce different items for download.

        Update from last week

        Tried unselecting the extras repo, so I hunted around the internet and found a command to reissue the PGP key.

        Code:
        sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-extras-keyring
        Goes to install it, and get this warning.

        Code:
        WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!
 ubuntu-extras-keyring
        I select it anyway, and I get this.

        Code:
        Setting up ubuntu-extras-keyring (2010.09.27) ...
Importing extras.ubuntu.com keyring
OK
Processing extras.ubuntu.com removal keyring
OK
        Then when I do a apt-get update, still get the error about the keys for the extras.

        Should I just delete the extras repo?
