Thanks Ingo
The reason I think it is external to my system is the fact (sorry I was
not explicit) that a number of packages did not report the WARNING.
from my original message:-
apache2-common apache2-doc apache2-mpm-prefork apache2-utils bugzilla
bugzilla-doc libapr0 libxine1 and tcpdump passed the authentication
step,
whereas
libsmbclient python-xdg samba samba-common smbclient generated a
WARNING.
Here is my stored public keys:-
adavid at ubuntu:~$ apt-key list
/etc/apt/trusted.gpg
