This means that before these tools can be used with jaunty AG packages,
the UQVislab repository public key will need to be imported. First
download the key file itself, then add it to the local key database.
There are
several ways to do this, the simplest being to enter the following
commands in a shell:
wget
http://www.vislab.uq.edu.au/debuntu/uqvislab-pubkey.asc
sudo
apt-key
add uqvislab-pubkey.asc
These could be combined ito a (long) single command:
wget
http://www.vislab.uq.edu.au/debuntu/uqvislab-pubkey.asc -O - | sudo
apt-key
add -
or, using curl rather than wget,
curl
http://www.vislab.uq.edu.au/debuntu/uqvislab-pubkey.asc | sudo apt-key
add -
The prompt for your password to add the downloaded key
(the sudo apt-key add - part of the command)
will probably not be obvious,
being mixed up with all the download information, so the transaction may
appear to have hung. Enter your password to complete the import of the key.
Now update your apt records (sudo
apt-get update) and download & install
packages as required.
Another method to install the UQVislab public key:
- download the public key using
a web browser's Save As
function. Then import the key via the Authentication
tab of the Software Sources
application (which is available from either the
System->Administration menu or Synaptic's
Settings->Repositories
menu). Now select the downloaded key file, navigating to it using the
file browser which pops up after pressing the button labelled +Import Key.
