Hai all,

I am in process of running the update manager, in the middle I got an error message stating installation packages from sources that are not authenticated. This means I should not continue with update? But this error is appears again and again. I do continue with the update it will crash the system? Help me to solve this error.

Title: Requires installation of untrusted packages.

Requires installation of untrusted packages

The action would require the installation of packages from sources that are not authenticated.

Hi Sean,
The error can be solved by following the commands mentioned below:
1) Click 'Start', select 'Run', the run window will open
2) Type 'cmd' and the command prompt window will open
3) Enter the command 'sudo apt -get clean', press enter
4) The command will clean the files present in the manager
5) Enter the command 'cd/var/lib/apt', 'sudo mv lists lists.old'
6) The lists will be moved from the old location to the new one in the system
7) Type 'sudo mkdir -p lists/partial', the user create a new directory in the path mentioned
8) Enter the command 'sudo apt -get clean', 'sudo apt -get update'
9) The files will be updated and the error is removed from the system
