Hi Johnny,

This should do the trick

gpg –keyserver subkeys.pgp.net –recv 4AF48A9DF8D7771F
gpg –export –armor 4AF48A9DF8D7771F | sudo apt-key add -

Cheers Simon

Thanks was help full, a note: If you can’t get the key with any server, check that your firewall allow acces to port 11371, this is the gpg’s port.

Thx a lot!

For me, the following worked (adopted from Tomasz above, with 2 sudo less):
sudo apt-get update 2> /tmp/keymissing 1> /dev/null; for key in $(grep "NO_PUBKEY" /tmp/keymissing |sed "s/.*NO_PUBKEY //"); do echo -e "\nProcessing key: $key"; gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv $key && gpg --export --armor $key | sudo apt-key add -; done; rm /tmp/keymissing

Other keyservers to try, if keyserver.ubuntu.com or subkeys.pgp.net are offline:

keyserver hkp://subkeys.pgp.net
keyserver hkp://pgp.mit.edu
keyserver hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net (random server)
keyserver hkp://keys.nayr.net
keyserver http://keys.gnupg.net
keyserver http://wwwkeys.xx.pgp.net where xx is a two-letter country code.

Yes, thanks!!

Although it was anti-climactic to finally fix this annoyance, and after typing the last command all it says is “OK”.
