Solution:

Updating the CUDA Linux GPG Repository Key | NVIDIA Technical Bloghttps://developer.nvidia.com/blog/updating-the-cuda-linux-gpg-repository-key/

Remove the outdated signing key

Debian, Ubuntu, WSL

$ sudo apt-key del 7fa2af80

Install the new key

For Debian-based distributions, including Ubuntu, you must also install the new package or manually install the new signing key.

Install the new cuda-keyring package

To avoid the need for manual key installation steps, NVIDIA is providing a new helper package to automate the installation of new signing keys for NVIDIA repositories. 

Replace $distro/$arch in the following commands with values appropriate for your OS; for example:

• debian10/x86_64
• debian11/x86_64
• ubuntu1604/x86_64
• ubuntu1804/cross-linux-sbsa
• ubuntu1804/ppc64el
• ubuntu1804/sbsa
• ubuntu1804/x86_64
• ubuntu2004/cross-linux-sbsa
• ubuntu2004/sbsa
• ubuntu2004/x86_64
• ubuntu2204/sbsa
• ubuntu2204/x86_64
• wsl-ubuntu/x86_64

Debian, Ubuntu, WSL

$ wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/$distro/$arch/cuda-keyring_1.0-1_all.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i cuda-keyring_1.0-1_all.deb

 Remove leftover sources.list items

If run sudo apt update now, the following error will pop up:

W: An error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used. GPG error: file:/var/cuda-repo-10-2-local-10.2.89-440.33.01  Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY F60F4B3D7FA2AF80
W: Failed to fetch file:/var/cuda-repo-10-2-local-10.2.89-440.33.01/Release.gpg  The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY F60F4B3D7FA2AF80

 "F60F4B3D 7FA2AF80" is the key we just removed. The above error is due to the leftover not cleaned up. To clean up:

sudo sed -i '/developer\.download\.nvidia\.com\/compute\/cuda\/repos/d' /etc/apt/sources.list

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cuda*.list

All done, check for errors

sudo apt update
apt list --upgradable
sudo apt upgrade
