Title: [SOLVED] Google signing key
Post by: Scott on December 10, 2014, 08:59:21 AM

Yesterday I was receiving this repository error (or some version of it) for most of the day on both LL 2/64 and LL 2.2/64 in virtualbox.

Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages (http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages)  Hash Sum mismatch
Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead

The fix that ended up working, so far, is to reapply Google's signing key

Code: [Select]

wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add -
So far I've only needed to reapply the signing key to LL 2, the problems with LL 2.2 stopped on their own.
