BADSIG 2EBC26B60C5A2783 despite of running the given command

Asked by udippel

Subject says it.
Running exactly that
sudo wget --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/$(lsb_release -cs).list && sudo apt-get --quiet update && sudo apt-get --yes --quiet --allow-unauthenticated install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get --quiet update
Everything goes through properly, except that in the end 'The repository is not updated and the previous index files ... following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 2EBC26B60C5A2783 Medibuntu Packaging Team ... .

What's wrong here??

Answer came in quickly:
It is a disease of Ubuntu's apt-get.
The error message is misleading.
It actually is a corruption in the archives, and can be dealt with simply by
sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/*
sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/*
sudo apt-get update

It's a bug with a simple workaround (if known).
