Bug Description

This has been reported on http://www.playonlinux.com/en/topic-2863.html and elsewhere. I'm just adding it to Launchpad since it is an Ubuntu-specific bug, and so that others can subscribe and be notified when it is fixed.

The POL package requires an authentication key, otherwise users receive a warning that the package comes from an untrusted source. If they are using the Update Manager GUI, this prevents them from upgrading POL.

Creating a Launchpad PPA might resolve this issue - see http://bugs.playonlinux.com/en/issue-91.html and https://bugs.launchpad.net/playonlinux/+bug/693706

I've created a copy of this ticket on the POL bug tracker at at http://bugs.playonlinux.com/en/issue-90.html
