gpgv
Raquel
the data resides on a removable drive.
I've just reinstalled a very basic system onto that machine, Debian
Lenny, and will begin adding firewall, server software, etc.
However, I'm getting an error from aptitude.
GPG error: http://security.debian.org testing/updates Release:
Unknown error executing gpgv
I've run apt-get update as the error suggests and get the same error
using apt-get.
I've installed debian-archive-keyring.
I've installed ntp so the machine's time is correct.
Does anyone know what's going on, and how to fix it?

Wait?
I can not run apt-file either.
Securit archive seems to lack Contents-i386.gz, Contents-ia64.gz, ...
Funny.

This happens when I run aptitude udpate

I've tried every suggestion found when I google this problem. Does
no one have an idea how to fix it?

But not the "ha ha" funny.
How does one file a bug about this?

This is not a missing key error, this is a problem executing gpgv. Do you
have gpgv installed? Can you generate a detached signature and then verify it
using gpgv?

Use reportbug. I think the pseudo-package you want is "project"; I'd double-
check before filing.
But, one already exists, sort of.
There's a bug against apt-file to have it know that the security archive
doesn't have Contents files. From what I understand, the maintainers of the
security repository are reluctant to generate the Contents files, for whatever
reason.

Yes. I have gpgv installed. I'm not sure how to generate a detached
signature and then verify it.
