Clearsigned file error when attempting to update packages

When I run apt update I get the following error:

E: Clearsigned file '/var/lib/apt/lists/gb.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_focal-updates_InRelease' contains unsigned lines.
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

Could you advise on how I can resolve this please?


Solution 1:

Remove problematic lists by

sudo rm -r /var/lib/apt/lists/*

and then retry with

sudo apt update
