Hi all,

for debian Repos I got the same (or similar?) problem. The apt-key
https://ssl.kolabsys.com/community.asc mentioned in the kolab install
howto on https://docs.kolab.org/installation-guide/debian-8.html isn't
the key the repository is signed anymore.

This key works:
https://obs.kolabsys.com/repositories/Kolab:/16/Debian_8.0/Release.key

I haven't a clue about centos repos, but maybe there is one:
https://obs.kolabsys.com/repositories/Kolab:/16/CentOS_7/repodata/

But of course this is like pulling myself up by my own bootstraps ...

Regards
Jan
