After following the instructions here:

https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuDistUpgrade

Since nothing happened, I decided to upgrade to 3.5.6. The upgrade was successful, so I decided to try the steps again.

I added the following line, verbatim, to the Adept Manager (after starting it from the system menu, not console):

deb http://kubuntu.org/~jriddell/tmp/archive-edgy-dist-upgrade-kde356-i386/ ./

This appeared to put in corrupted data. I proceeded anyway. Adept Manager crashed in flames. The next time I started it, it complained of a corrupted line in /etc/apt/sources.list.

I then removed the offending line from the file and ran apt-get update. I was greeted with:

Reading package lists... Done
W: GPG error: http://kubuntu.org edgy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY A506E6D4DD4D5088
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

I re-ran apt-get update and continued to receive the same error message.

I then repeated the steps listed in this message and have attached a screenshot that shows the corrupted string data within Adept Manager.
