When running Ubuntu 22.04 or newer, using apt-key
for adding signing keys to the list of trusted keys for package repositories is deprecated. Here's how to convert to the newly recommended method. Keys have been saved to the keyring file in /etc/apt/trusted.gpg
but now should be placed into their own keyring in /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/
Error message
The error message looks like this:
W: http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/dists/jammy-pgdg/InRelease: Key is stored in legacy trusted.gpg keyring (/etc/apt/trusted.gpg), see the DEPRECATION section in apt-key(8) for details.
Adding the key to right place
To add the key, first find out its ID:
$ sudo apt-key list
Warning: apt-key is deprecated. Manage keyring files in trusted.gpg.d instead (see apt-key(8)).
/etc/apt/trusted.gpg

This list will be quite long. Look for the key that describes the apt repository you added and pick the last 8 characters of its ID, i.e. in our PostgreSQL example, pick ACCC 4CF8
Now write the key to the directory of trusted keys:
$ sudo apt-key export ACCC4CF8 | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/postgres.gpg
$ sudo apt-get update
Now the error message should no longer appear.
