UPDATE: Ive reinstalled libreadline6 to no avail. Im still getting the undefined symbol errors gpg: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/libreadline.so.6: undefined symbol: UP
Any help appreciated.
Im trying to update my desktop (I've been away from internet for 6 months) and Im encountering some problems.
apt-get update
fails because a public key is unavailable, and apt-get upgrade
fails when setting up apt, due to libreadline errors.
Im sure the problem is with my libreadline because during my 6mo without internet Im pretty sure I rebuilt it from source (and encountered other problems in doing so) to try and embed the lua interpreter into a program.
More details on that can be found in my post here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22727700/g-undefined-references-with-lua-and-libdl
Here is my apt-get update
output.
Its cut down because its recognizing the links and wont let me post because my rep is below 10.
