Unable to install insync on Ubuntu 22.04

[Mo-way]

Reporting a bug 🐛

Expected behavior

I have a fresh Ubuntu 22.04 machine, fresh deb-get install.
Insync should install successfully.
Other packages such as sublime-merge or zotero install successfully.

Actual behavior

Fixed it with the command from PR #731

mkdir -p /root/.gnupg
sudo gpg --no-default-keyring --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/insync-archive-keyring.gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv A684470CACCAF35C

Gives:

gpg: WARNING: unsafe permissions on homedir '/root/.gnupg'
gpg: keybox '/usr/share/keyrings/insync-archive-keyring.gpg' created
gpg: /root/.gnupg/trustdb.gpg: trustdb created

gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg:               imported: 1

Now I'm able to install successfully:

deb-get install insync

The root problem was that you didn't have the '/root/.gnupg' directory.
The fix would have been to sudo gpg -k > /dev/null
You should sudo chmod 700 /root/.gnupg
