Hi,

Naughtily upgrading via, sed -i 's/precise/quantal/g' /etc/apt/sources.list

apt-get update:
...
Hit http://archive.ubuntu.com quantal-updates/universe Translation-en
Reading package lists... Done
W: There is no public key available for the following key IDs:
3B4FE6ACC0B21F32

It did leave me scratching my head momentarily, until I remembered this thread.

I haven't checked, but presumably it is signed with both keys.. An apt
isn't content with knowing one of the signatures is valid.  Is the
key, (or if my suggestion is correct - a fix for apt) going to be
SRU'd?

Kind Regards,
Dave Walker
