Looking on the web site I found the information about rpmkey. So I added the word "rpmkey" to my sources.list, just like the web page says.
Well done, you're near the solution.
My sources.list starts off like this now (please excuse word-wrapping):
rpm ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt SuSE/9.1-i386 rpmkey update-prpm update (and more following)
Typo: 'rpmkey' must be 'rpmkeys'. Mind the 's'! ;) ... http://linux01.gwdg.de/apt4rpm/home.html#hints The 2nd hint will help you further. Anyway, this is a great site to explore, especially for apt beginners. BTW, just add the 's' to rpmkey in sources.list, then do: apt update apt install rpmkey-suser-rbos apt install apt BTW 2: if apt wants to upgrade 526 packages, that sounds not good. Post the output of: egrep -v '^(#|$)' /etc/sources.list then we'll see if we can do something about it. Cheers, Leen
