This occurs on using the update manager, package manager, apt-get update, etc. Any ideas? I've tried deleting the cached files, changing my server, checking that my date & time are correct (signing can be time sensitive), updating gpg (it was already at the latest), and maybe some other things I've forgotten.

I even tried removing and reinstalling gpg, which is a hassle because many programs depend on it. I also installed (unverified!) updates and restarted; no luck.
I've been able to get around this so far by skipping gpg validation of things that I install -- but obviously this is less than ideal (and subject to man-in-the-middle attacks, etc.).
Both were reinstalled. Along with the standard messages, apt-get displayed
Code:
gpg: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/libreadline.so.6: undefined symbol: PC
gpg: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/libreadline.so.6: undefined symbol: PC
and the problem still remains: sudo apt-get update gives
I hadn't. I just did, and it gave me the same result as before.

I'm not entirely unfamiliar with the crypto behind the updates, so I realized some time ago that my clock might affect my ability to authenticate. And indeed when I started this process my clock was fairly far off. But I corrected that some time ago. I just checked my time against the US Naval Observatory time and found it to be within 1 s of correct time (probably closer).
So that's not it, either.

Please let us know when you find a solution.
I'll be sure to post here if I find anything out, because I think there are others with the same problem. Thanks for your time.

Ah! I found it.
The problem wasn't gpg after all, but libreadline6. Updating it didn't help, but building it manually (md5: a3a5bf025a1b8df869f45f34098ffc6a rather than 2569b5ed629a3e573b0a8f9ec23a37ff) and copying my version to /usr/local/lib/libreadline.so.6 worked!
I came across a number of apparent tarballs of OS packages which are in a format which I do not recognize. Does anybody know which packet manager uses this format?
