The bug is at your end of things. You need to add the Banshee Team GPG key to
apt's keyring.

The following command should handle it:
wget
'http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x4874D3686E80C6B7'
-qO- | sudo apt-key add -

By the way, just so you know, the unstable PPA has shifted from
https://launchpad.net/~banshee-unstable-team/+archive/ppa to
https://launchpad.net/~banshee-team/+archive/banshee-unstable, so you'll have to
fix your deb string in sources.list appropriately to:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/banshee-team/banshee-unstable/ubuntu jaunty main

Okay, I've looked into it, and the error message is not related to the Banshee
PPA. The key you're missing is the "Launchpad PPA for Spring developers"[1] key,
which is unrelated to Banshee.

But anyway, the command that would fix your issue is:
wget -qO-
'http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xFC66403D8670A035'

Thx for 1.5.1 release and keep going with the good work. I see Banshee
in a few years as one of the leading open source players available.

Any idea when the IPOD bugs  are addressed (podcast synchronizing, drag
and drop files from Browser)? I guess this wont happen for the Karmic
Release....

Best regards,

I don't know about "soon", but GTK+ issues with the latest version of
Mono for the Mac are responsible for the delay.
