DigitalOcean Agent key deprecation warning in Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy)

Posted on June 19, 2022
Ubuntu 22.04
Asked by Quppa

On a fresh Ubuntu 22.04 (LTS) x64 droplet, running apt update && apt upgrade will produce the following warning:

W: https://repos.insights.digitalocean.com/apt/do-agent/dists/main/InRelease: Key is stored in legacy trusted.gpg keyring (/etc/apt/trusted.gpg), see the DEPRECATION section in apt-key(8) for details.

This is a warning, not an error, and it can be fixed manually, but it would be nice for it not to happen in the first place in Ubuntu 22.04+.

I figured out the fix…

If logged in a root (otherwise sudo to be added)

Run apt update

get the error

then;

apt-key export A4C6383F | gpg --dearmour -o /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/digitalocean-agent.gpg

Fixed!

Issue still exists…

Also I do not understand the fix… I cannot produce some of the bits they need as I generally do not know how…

I am not clueless but this error is new to me and the fix is confusing…

Where is DigitalOcean fix?

Hi there,

I have just tested this out and it seems to have worked as expected on a fresh new Ubuntu 22.04 Droplet:

wget -qO- https://repos-droplet.digitalocean.com/install.sh | sudo bash
