I really need your help as a fresher in linux :/

I have deleted the folder trusted.gpg.d located in /etc/apt/ and also deleted /etc/apt/sources.list.d.

Now when I try to update I receive these errors:

Err:2 LINKpt.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-updates InRelease

NOTE - I've changed http:// to LINK to be able to submit this question.

I have tried a bunch of suggestion like:

1 - apt install extundelete to recover the files. And receive this error: E: Unable to locate package extundelete

2 - sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys **<MY KEY>** (I've tried with and without hkp://)

3 - apt-get install ubuntu-keyring and similar errors about NO_PUBKEYS

4 - gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key **<MY KEY>** gpg -a --export **<MY KEY>** | sudo apt-key add . and got de error: gpg: keyserver receive failed: End of file; gpg: WARNING: nothing exported gpg: .: read error: Is a directory gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.

5- I have already used this one too unsuccessfully sudo apt update 2>&1 1>/dev/null | sed -ne 's/.*NO_PUBKEY //p' | while read key; do if ! [[ ${keys[*]} =~ "$key" ]]; then sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --recv-keys "$key"; keys+=("$key"); fi; done

Anyone can help me please?

  • First why did you delete what you did? Were you trying to do something? – David Oct 01 '21 at 13:39
  • I tried unsuccessfully to install a wiki software, and then I uninstalled correctly using the apt-get --purge remove and apt-get --purge autoremove. When I tried to install it again, and I noticed that was some other content remains from the previous installation. I follow the path where was the duplicated files (/etc/apt/sources.list.d) and removed thinking that all the contents were installed by me. I also did a ls -ls to see the hours of the last installations and the folder trusted.gpg.d was in the same time, so I did delete that also thinking that was installed by me. – Silvia Oct 01 '21 at 13:58
  • Thanks David, I know that I messed up..... – Silvia Oct 01 '21 at 13:58
  • Time for a complete re install I would suggest. – David Oct 01 '21 at 14:10
  • Full normal output sudo apt update is needed. Upload it to pastebin. Do you use proxy? – N0rbert Oct 01 '21 at 18:50
  • Does this answer your question? How do I fix the GPG error "NO_PUBKEY"? – karel Apr 01 '22 at 08:40
