Additional Information (if applicable)

I’m trying to update DietPi from v8.11.2 to v8.14.2 however am getting a GPG error stating that the signature is invalid.

I recently had a power cut whilst the RPi was powered. Last time that happened my SD card became corrupted and I had to reflash DietPi to get things working again. Since the most recent power cut, I’m now getting an internal compiler error when trying to compile my C++ program using GCC. I have no idea if any of these things are linked…

Steps to reproduce

  1. dietpi-update

Expected behaviour

  • DietPi updates to v8.14.2

Actual behaviour

  • GPG error

Looks like you added a 3rd party repository yourself

The repository 'http://vontaene.de/raspbian-updates . Release' is not signed

Have a look if it has been setup correctly. Maybe remove the repository if you don’t know what it is used for.
