thank you!
In case of keyserver errors add the qgis.org repository public key to your apt keyring. I recommend you read about register keys in https://www.qgis.org/en/site/forusers/alldownloads.html.
I have ubuntu 16.04(virtual machine), and tried to install QGIS 2.18 and after adding the lines in /etc/apt/sources.list update, print an error.
W: GPG error: http://qgis.org/debian xenial InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY CAEB3DC3BDF7FB45
W: The repository 'http://qgis.org/debian xenial InRelease' is not signed.
N: Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
Can someone help me with this, thank you
wget -O - http://qgis.org/downloads/qgis-2017.gpg.key | gpg --import
gpg --fingerprint CAEB3DC3BDF7FB45
Should output:
pub 2048R/BDF7FB45 2017-08-16 [expires: 2019-08-16]
Key fingerprint = 61E0 A086 749E 463E DE50 2255 CAEB 3DC3 BDF7 FB45
uid QGIS Archive Automatic Signing Key (2017)
sub 2048R/E959BBCF 2017-08-16 [expires: 2019-08-16]
After you have verified the fingerprint you can add the key to apt with:
gpg --export --armor CAEB3DC3BDF7FB45 | sudo apt-key add -
Alternatively you can download the key from a keyserver and add the key to apt in one go (without manual fingerprint verification):
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-key CAEB3DC3BDF7FB45
