Devuan apt update error

Running apt update on my Devuan machine today results in these:

It turns out that the keyring has been rebuilt (read post #7). More than one way to fix it - I choose this one:

rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
apt update --allow-insecure-repositories
apt install devuan-keyring --allow-unauthenticated

note: removing all in list may be overkill - maybe try removing just deb.devuan.org_merged_dists_chimaera_InRelease instead? keep in mind that some pc may still use pkgmaster.devuan.org

All is well now… and that is all I have to say about that.
