Security updates to Ubuntu repository

Earlier this month we added GPG support to our version 2 repository.  While this wasn’t required, it does add an extra layer of security for updates downloaded from our server.

In order to use the key, you need to add the key to the apt key ring.  You can do this with this command:

wget -q http://ubuntu.bluecherrydvr.com/key/bluecherry.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add –

 The response should be ‘Ok’.  You can verify that the key is installed correctly by running apt-key list:
/etc/apt/trusted.gpg
