Hi there, I hope that's not been asked ad nauseam (but I could not find it in the archives...) but, if I put a CRAN mirror in my sources.list and I try to install the latest R version for 'testing' I get the warning that the packages cannot be autenticated. I tried to figure out how to get a GPG key from the mirror I'm using (the austrian one) in case that's the solution, but fat chance! apt-get update does not return any error anyawy, i.e. does not warn me of any missing GPG key from the CRAN mirror. Any suggestion would be apprecciated. Best, Fede -- Federico C. F.

I'd guess it's simply missing. Try wiki.debian.org for info on how to
_create_ such a key, and then convince someone at CRAN to create one.
