I am struggling with trying to get my home Ubuntu 24.04 workstation to become a DNS nameserver, and a friend suggested your utility. I have been vexed for a while with these key errors with sudo apt update and other apt functions. I think I made a bad mistake trying to follow this website:
htt ps:// www .linuxupris ing.com /2021/01/ apt-key-is-depr ecated-how-to-add. html
I took the Release.gpg file from your repository
and renamed it to webadmin-archive-keyring.gpg and saved it in /usr/share/keyrings. However,
kayve@kayve-Ubuntu:/usr/share/keyrings$ sudo apt update
Ign:1
.
.
.
Reading package lists… Done
W: GPG error: webmin.c om/down load/repository sarge Release: The following signatures couldn’t be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY D97A3AE911F63C51
E: The repository ‘ht tp://down load.webmin.com/download/repository sarge Release’ is not signed.
N: Updating from such a repository can’t be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
kayve@kayve-Ubuntu:/usr/share/keyrings$ popd
Is still ending with an error referring to webmin. I just realized below as well there is a webmin-developers file. Note my prompt includes a full path (my user is kayve my computer host is kayve-Ubuntu)
kayve@kayve-Ubuntu:/usr/share/keyrings$ ls

kayve@kayve-Ubuntu:/usr/share/keyrings$ sudo mv webadmin-archive-keyring.gpg ~
You can see above that I moved the file I created out of there, but my sudo apt update still has errors referring to webmin.
How can I make sure I am conforming to modern Ubuntu standards for gpg while installing your application, or if this is not possible, remove the offending installation detritus that is causing these errors?
