updates to i386 installer come up as untrusted packages

[ratmav]

using the gui package updater, the steami386 installer is flagged as an untrusted package and won't install. when i run "sudo apt-get update," the reason seems to be pretty clear:

W: GPG error: http://repo.steampowered.com precise InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY F24AEA9FB05498B7

so, it looks like apt is having trouble finding your public key? i can probably force the update, in a manner similar to what i've seen online, but i would expect to be able to update normally using the gui. is that reasonable?

i'm running xubuntu 12.10 64-bit. while i'm not running the default unity desktop, the de doesn't seem to be related to this problem. perhaps i'm wrong?

Duplicate of #117 and #183

[ratmav]

$ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys B05498B7
$ sudo apt-get update

the above fix, as referenced in #117 and #183, cleared the issue right up. however, i don't think i should have to manually add keys - but this issue is already addressed in #117. sorry for the extra paperwork.

@ratmav thanks for the answer!

I did what you wrote, but my problem is following:

andyceo@dellicious:~$ sudo apt-cache search steam jacktrip - A System for High-Quality Audio Network Performance lightyears - single player real-time strategy game with steampunk sci-fi maptransfer - upload/download maps to/from a VALVe game server (Client) andyceo@dellicious:~$ sudo aptitude search steam andyceo@dellicious:~$

So, there is no repository in my deb sources and it is expected I am not able to install steam from repository.

If I add repository manualy to my deb sources, I get the 404 error messages what this issue is about.
