Bug Description

Ubuntu Software Center will not let me add applications. I wanted to add php5-doc and gphpedit. It refused to add these packages saying that they were untrusted sources. Synaptic Package Manager gave the same message but allowed me to add the packages. I got the same failure form USC with another supposedly innocent package. I am not sure what info off my system to supply. It is U 10.10 with upgrade requested to be allowed from Update Manager on April 29, it added 278 packages and seemed to be OK. It was NOT an upgrade to U 11.4.

This morning I tried to add a new app using Ubuntu Software Center. It was the Tea Text Editor. This install went normally, no error about there being an untrusted package. I do not know why it worked today and not yesterday. I hope that this is a transient problem fixed on the software distribution side and not with my installation.

Might have been something you did, I'm not sure, going to dupe since it seems to be inline with it.

I have run update manager several times since and added apps with Ubuntu
Software Center since with no problem. There must have been some bad state
that fixed itself as far as I can guess, but i had no way to troubleshoot,
which is why I opened the bug. I guess the bug is now moot unless it can
generate more debugging steps from either app.
