Things I tried to fix this:

  • sudo apt-get autoremove
  • sudo apt-get clean
  • sudo apt-get check
  • sudo dpkg --configure -a
  • sudo apt-get -f install

And also: sudo apt-mark hold apt; sudo apt-get -f install

When trying to install anything i also get the following:

  1. If you pre-install the webupd8 team's y-ppa-manager your life is going to be easier

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/y-ppa-manager
sudo update && sudo apt-get install y-ppa-manager

    You can then remove or backup the existing gpg's by executing:

    sudo rm /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/*
sudo apt-get update

    Now you will see something like this :

    W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net wily InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY C2518248EEA14886
W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net wily InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY C2518248EEA14886
W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net wily InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY C2518248EEA14886
W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net vivid InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY C2518248EEA14886

    This means that you will have to re-import all keys ...

    Now launch the y-ppa-manager application

    Click on Advanced
Select Try to import all missing GPG keys

    BAM! You should be back in business with all your repos working correctly!

  2. I tried the solution from @A.B. it didn't go well but I managed to do a modified one. I installed y-ppa-manager:

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/y-ppa-manager
sudo update && sudo apt-get install y-ppa-manager

    Launched it :

    sudo y-ppa-manager

    And then : Manage PPAs > removed all the PPAs containing webupd8team (I had 4 of them ) and then closed the y-ppa=manager.

    In console, I re-added them. Ex : 

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java -y
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/sublime-text-3 -y
....
....

    And I did a sudo apt-get update and all went smoothly. No errors anymore.

  3. I use the following commands to install all the missing keys automatically :

    sudo apt install add-apt-key -y
sudo apt-get update 2>&1 >/dev/null | awk '/InRelease:.*not available: NO_PUBKEY/{print "sudo add-apt-key "$NF}' | sh -x

    Here is an example output :

    + sudo add-apt-key 4C1CBE14852541CB
gpg: requesting key 852541CB from hkp server keyserver.ubuntu.com
gpg: key 852541CB: "Launchpad PPA for Panda Jim" not changed
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg:              unchanged: 1
OK
+ sudo add-apt-key 03647209B58A653A
gpg: requesting key B58A653A from hkp server keyserver.ubuntu.com
gpg: key B58A653A: "Launchpad PPA for Unit 193" not changed
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg:              unchanged: 1
OK

    Hope this helps.
