Here's what you should know about it. [Fixing “Key is stored in legacy trusted.gpg keyring” Issue in UbuntuIf you use a PPA or add an external repository in Ubuntu 22.04 and later versions, chances are that you will see a message like this: W: https://packagecloud.io/slacktechnologies/slack/debian/dists/jessie/InRelease: Key is stored in legacy trusted.gpg keyring (/etc/apt/trusted.gpg), see![](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/size/w256h256/2022/12/android-chrome-192x192.png)It's FOSSAbhishek Prakash![](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2022/11/key-legacy-trusted-gpg-keyring-error-ubuntu.png)](https://itsfoss.com/key-is-stored-in-legacy-trusted-gpg/) One more common annoyance these days is the 'pending update of xyz' notification. Though I have written the troubleshooter for Firefox, it is valid for other (snap) apps like VS Code, Spotify etc. [Fixing the “Pending Update of Firefox snap” Error in UbuntuIf you are using Ubuntu 22.04, you might have received this notification. It notifies you that the Firefox update is pending and asks you to close the app to avoid disruption.
