installation not working

Asked by Andrew Marshall

I'm using Gutsy and am a relatively new user. I downloaded and then added the following command into terminal, as instructed:

wget -q http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repo/medibuntu-key.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -

I got the following output:

gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.

I think you are trying to setup medibuntu repository under the /etc/apt/sources.list files
To import medibuntu repository gpg key
Please open a Terminal from the menu Applications->Accessories->Terminal and type:

sudo wget -q http://packages.medibuntu.org/medibuntu-key.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -

give your user password when requested, you don't see nothing when you type it, then press enter.

Then open the /etc/apt/sources.list with this command:

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

and put this for the medibuntu repository

deb http://packages.medibuntu.org/ gutsy free non-free
deb-src http://packages.medibuntu.org/ gutsy free non-free

Apologies for the delay in responding but have had problems elsewhere.

Am I doing something wrong? I cut and pasted the following as you mention:

sudo wget -q http://packages.medibuntu.org/medibuntu-key.gpg -O- | sudo
apt-key add -

but I don't get the request for the password but the following instead: andrew@andrew-laptop:~$ apt-key add -

Try to split the command:

sudo wget -q http://packages.medibuntu.org/medibuntu-key.gpg
sudo apt-key add medibuntu-key.gpg

Can you help with this problem?
