Re: [LUG] Advice please

 

Do you have any non official repositories in your application sources list?  Things like PPAs, etc?

Update Manager is bringing up a 'Summary' screen warning that the
updates about to be installed "can't be authenticated"

The exact warning reads:
"You are about to install software that can't be authenticated!
Doing this could allow a malicious individual to damage or take control
of your system"

The packages concerned are;
libpcsclite1 (version 1.5.3-1ubuntu4.1) will be upgraded to version
1.5.3-1ubuntu4.2
rsync (version 3.0.7-1ubuntu1) will be upgraded to version
3.0.7-1ubuntu1.1
tzdata (version 2011e-0ubuntu0.10.04) will be upgraded to version
2011g-0ubuntu0.10.04

What's going on here, should I be concerned, any advice is appreciated
but the bottom line - is it safe to do the download?

Guy
