apt-get error with ppa need improvement

[Timmie]

Binary package hint: apt

Using apt-get update returns:

Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig
W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net jaunty Release: Die folgenden Signaturen konnten nicht überprüft werden, weil ihr öffentlicher Schlüssel nicht verfügbar ist: NO_PUBKEY 089EBE08314DF160
W: Probieren Sie »apt-get update«, um diese Probleme zu korrigieren.

This basically blocks all upgrade manager GUIs.

What would be helpful to get the URL or line of sources.list where the errornous PPA can be lockaed and the missing key retrieved.

hey tim, after a quite long search, i found the following commands:

gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv 089EBE08314DF160
gpg --export --armor 089EBE08314DF160 | sudo apt-key add -

since i'm a bloody noob, i don't completely understand what they mean, but they did it anyway.
found them here: http://www.classicning.com/blog/2009/11/adding-ubuntu-gis-repository/

Since Karmic you can use the command 'add-apt-repository' that will get the key for a PPA automatically.

Re: comment #1
Can't connect to subkeys.pgp.net
Can't connect to keyserver.ubuntu.com, either
But I was able to connect to hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80

gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 089EBE08314DF160
gpg --export --armor 089EBE08314DF160 | apt-key add -

With this I was able to complete the apt-get-update.

Re: comment #2
As for the command
add-apt-repository
I never was able to determine which repository needed to be added.

Re: comment #4
Forgot to mention that I executed
sudo -i
before the commands in comment #4.
Also, the name of the public key, 089EBE08314DF160, is part of the first gpg command and not part of the output.

sudo -i
gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 089EBE08314DF160
gpg --export --armor 089EBE08314DF160 | apt-key add -
