  • Which guid did you follow? Which repository did you add? Is it a Ubuntu PPA, why did you not use add-apt-repository then? Have you tried installing the tor package that is already in the Ubuntu repository? help.ubuntu.com/community/Tor

In order to be able to install from a secured repository you will need to add their public key to apt.



You should have received an information on where to get the public key from the makers of the repository. Download this key and save it on your drive.



The we can add this key with



sudo apt-key add </path/name_of_downloaded_key_file>

    The keyserver keys.ubuntu.com seems not to be active at the moment. You can however use keys.gnupg.net:



    gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv 886DDD89
    gpg --export A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89 | sudo apt-key add -

      try gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 886DDD89 this should work



      try directly copy and execute command from line above, in your question you have mistake in input string gpg: Invalid option "--keyserver.ubuntu.com"



      and you should use keyserver.ubuntu.com instead of keys.ubuntu.com



      when key is received export it using this: `gpg --export A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89 | sudo apt-key add -



      If this doesn't work please post output of this command: gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.net --search-keys 886DDD89
