Re: key error

 

Sure, they are mirrored from the other servers. There are LOADS of key
servers, just that everyone seems hell bent to using one then wondering why
they get timeouts. I think its comical. The keys are added so that you know
the packages are from the maintainers repo. They are used to decrypt the
data (as far as I am aware), so a key is a key, as long as the data is
decrypted it is ok..
