The solution is simple.Take the first key you have problem with, for example E635A714505A2DD1, take the last 8 symbols (in this case - 505A2DD1) and run the following in the terminal:
Code:
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 505A2DD1
gpg --export --armor 505A2DD1 | sudo apt-key add -
Then repeat this step with every problematic key.


It somehow helped, not to solve the problem but to narrow it .. thank you!
