I made a couple of earlier posts regarding a libssl-dev that, it seemed, was not removable. Some of the replies touched on that there was a problem with apt, and now that someone posted the command to force uninstalling a package, I only have an issue with ack:Setting up apt (0.8.16~exp12ubuntu10.10) ...gpg: gpg: [don't know]: invalid packet (ctb=03)Invalid option --primary-keyringgpg: read_keyblock: read error: invalid packetgpg: enum_keyblocks(read) failed: invalid keyringgpg: WARNING: nothing exporteddpkg: error processing apt (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2No apport report written because MaxReports is reached already                                                              Errors were encountered while processing: aptE: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)A package failed to install.

It didn't work. I copied a trusted.gpg from a machine where it was working as well. Still didn't work.What can I do to satisfy apt configuration so I can get back to updating my software normally?
What does apt need to be healed of a bad setup?
