Are you getting the either the “Missing Signed-By in the sources.list” N error or, a W error “uses weak algorithm” error? Both of these messages can be easily resolved with two steps.
We’re talking bout Ubuntu 24.4 Noble Numbat here.
Results from checking apt get updates. Weak. Doesn’t sound good.
- W: http://ppa.launchpad.net/ondrej/php/ubuntu/dists/noble/InRelease: Signature by key 14AA40EC0831756756D7F66C4F4EA0AAE5267A6C uses weak algorithm (rsa1024)
- N: Missing Signed-By in the sources.list(5) entry for ‘http://ppa.launchpad.net/ondrej/php/ubuntu’
For fun. Run the apt remove command. It will likely fail, that’s why you’re here.
- sudo add-apt-repository –remove ppa:ondrej/php (ondrej’s like no please man don’t do that, please, ok)
Delete the following two files from /etc/apt/sources.list.d – mine had names as thus
- ondrej-ubuntu-php-focal.list.distUpgrade
- ondrej-ubuntu-php-focal.sources
Run the apt install command!
- sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
Run an update. Ohhhh yes, no weak keys!
- Yea! we’re all PPA’d up!
