[Bug 1263540] Re: Apt-get reports NO_PUBKEY gpg error for keys that are present in trusted.gpg.

 

I just gone to /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d and remove unused keys until I got
below 40 keys. Then ran `sudo apt-get update` and fixed.

Title:
  Apt-get reports NO_PUBKEY gpg error for keys that are present in
  trusted.gpg.

Status in APT:
  Fix Released
Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 13.10
  apt  0.9.9.1~ubuntu3

  'apt-get update' has started showing several warnings like the
  following, even though the keys are present:

  W: GPG error: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com saucy Release: The
  following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is
  not available: NO_PUBKEY 40976EAF437D05B5 NO_PUBKEY 3B4FE6ACC0B21F32

  'apt-key list' shows the keys in question in its output...

  pub   1024D/437D05B5 2004-09-12
  uid                  Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@xxxxxxxxxx>
  sub   2048g/79164387 2004-09-12

  pub   4096R/C0B21F32 2012-05-11
  uid                  Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key (2012) <ftpmaster@xxxxxxxxxx>

  ...and its output begins with the following:

  gpg: keyblock resource `/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d//webupd8team-y-ppa-
  manager.gpg': resource limit

  I see the same gpg message when I manually update/remove/add the keys
  in question. E.g.:

  $ sudo apt-key update
  gpg: keyblock resource `/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d//webupd8team-java.gpg': resource limit
  gpg: keyblock resource `/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d//webupd8team-y-ppa-manager.gpg': resource limit
  gpg: key 437D05B5: "Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@xxxxxxxxxx>" not changed
  gpg: key FBB75451: "Ubuntu CD Image Automatic Signing Key <cdimage@xxxxxxxxxx>" not changed
  gpg: key C0B21F32: "Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key (2012) <ftpmaster@xxxxxxxxxx>" not changed
  gpg: key EFE21092: "Ubuntu CD Image Automatic Signing Key (2012) <cdimage@xxxxxxxxxx>" not changed
  gpg: Total number processed: 4
  gpg:              unchanged: 4

  I asked about the "resource limit" message on the gnupg-users mailing list...
  http://www.mail-archive.com/gnupg-users@xxxxxxxxx/msg23300.html
  Based on Werner Koch's (the dev) answer...
  http://www.mail-archive.com/gnupg-users@xxxxxxxxx/msg23302.html
  ...the secure apt related programs might be making gpg use more than the maximum number of keyrings that it can handle.
