"gpgv" is installed.

Any ideas what's going on?

Thanks

Is your clock set right?

sudo date --set '2016-12-04 17:55:00'

Hi,

Thank you so much for your reply. The clock was right.

The problem is now solved after reinstalling gpgv.

It prompted something that "it was not secure to install gpgv" but I installed it anyway.

I guess I was facing some keyring problem.

Then I ran the following commands

Code: Select all

sudo touch /usr/share/keyrings/raspbian-archive-removed-keys.gpg
sudo dpkg --configure -a 
sudo apt-key update
