i had issues with public keys . however i found a fix on the net .
from nick @ Ubuntu Software Forum - Home of Ultimate Edition
I had to ectract the file and then run a terminal from the directory and ./launchpad-ppa-fix.pl
this fixed my keys error you can use the wget command or download the script from here ill attach it as a text file (txt) you will have to rename the ext pl once dwonloaded.

Solve missing gpg key error

Solve missing gpg key error ie: W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net intrepid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 778978B00F7992B0
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
I made a perl script that:
- Can detect and fix any launchpad PPA link in /etc/apt/sources.list
- Backs up the original /etc/apt/sources.list as /etc/apt/sources.list.backup
- Imports GPG keys for the links detected in /etc/apt/sources.list
Requirements:
- Administrative privileges
- Perl
- Internet connection
- HTML::Parser
Code:
sudo apt-get install libhtml-parser-perl
How to use it:
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Code:
wget http://savvas.radevic.com/launchpad/change.tar.gz -O change.tar.gz
tar xzvf change.tar.gz
perl change.pl
sudo apt-get update
rm change.tar.gz change.pl
Fallback plan:
If anything goes wrong, I guess the only important thing changed are the sources.list:
Code:
sudo cp -f /etc/apt/sources.list.backup /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update
