apt-get update - error

hello guys i have one problem with terminal
when i do apt-get update told me the public key is not aviabile. NO_PUBKEY, and not installed the updates.

Re: apt-get update - error

This is a known issue, and depends on nokia official repositories.

Don't worry, repositories are still operative though. Look around the forum for related info.

This has nothing to do with the NO_PUBKEY warning (which is just a warning and doesn't prevent anything from working). The issue is with locking the dpkg directory. Check that you don't have App Manager open, that you have free rootfs space (df -h /), that the /var/lib/dpkg directory exists, and that the permissions on it are correct (ls -ld /var/lib/dpkg).
