    [SOLVED] Cannot add pgp key

    so i got the key and saved it using Kate (as .pgp), but Kpackagekit wont see the file and in the konsole i get this;

    Code:
    @Machine:~$ wget --quiet ppa-spring.pgp - | sudo apt-key add -
    [sudo] password for me:
    
    gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
    and i was on the right dir. trust me.

    If you already retrieved the key, then from in the directory where you saved it:
    Code:
    sudo apt-key add filename

      did
      Code:
      sudo apt-key add ppa-spring.pgp
      [sudo] password for me:
      gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
      you think its a problem with the way i saved the key?

            Delete the key file you edited and saved. Re-pull down the key and make no changes to it - none. Then run the command I cited from within the directory you downloaded the key.
