[Bug 806165] Re: cannot install GIMP or any other program - message says that it is an untrusted source. Thank you

[Maria Thomson]

Hi Robert - I looked up the issue on Google, and found a forum where someone
had had the same problem, and solved it by changing the software source to
the south african server, and then back again. It worked for me also. This
was an upgraded install I did with the new release a couple of months ago.

Thanks and best wishes

Maria
