To: Chamal De Silva: Thank you for your reply. Your "workaround" was successful except that I had to add one additional step. After closing the Synaptic Package Manager, the update manager would not open and was still showing (at that point) 101 updates. So, I tried rebooting the computer. After the reboot, the update manager did not show any updates. I selected the cog image in the upper right corner of the screen and "up to date" regarding updates was displayed. I checked it again now (as I write this) and the information reads "updates available". I will select it to see what happens. Oh no! It now shows the 101 updates to be installed again. I will try it. Maybe the additional 9 updates have some type of fix.
No, there was no fix. I still receive the same error message "requires the installation of untrusted packages" I tried installing but was not successful. I wonder if it would help to reinstall Ubuntu?
