Have you tried:

Code:
sudo -i

apt-get update

I know you said you've tried, apt-get update, so I'm fishing here.

Also, check your system clock. Make sure the date and time are correct.

I'll keep looking... I"m curious how to correct this authentication issue... in case I ever have this problem.

Please let us know when you find a solution.

NAME
sbuild-update - update, upgrade, and clean an sbuild chroot with apt-get SYNOPSIS
sbuild-update [-h|--help] [-V|--version] [--arch=architecture] [-u|--update] [-g|--upgrade] [-d|--dist-upgrade] [-c|--clean] [-a|--auto- clean] [-r|--autoremove] CHROOT1 [CHROOT2 [CHROOTn...]] sbuild-update -k|--keygen (DEPRECATED) sbuild-upgrade [-h|--help] [-V|--version] CHROOT1 [CHROOT2 [CHROOTn...]] (DEPRECATED) sbuild-distupgrade [-h|--help] [-V|--version] CHROOT1 [CHROOT2 [CHROOTn...]] (DEPRECATED) sbuild-clean [-h|--help] [-V|--version] [-c|--clean] [-a|--autoclean] [-r|--autoremove] CHROOT1 [CHROOT2 [CHROOTn...]] DESCRIPTION
sbuild-update runs apt-get inside the specified chroot performing update, upgrade, dist-upgrade, clean, autoclean, and/or autoremove depending on the options specified on the command line. sbuild-upgrade, sbuild-distupgrade, and sbuild-clean, are deprecated. They now simply run sbuild-update with the appropriate options (--upgrade or --dist-upgrade for sbuild-upgrade or sbuild-distupgrade respectively) along with whatever arguments were passed in the scripts. OPTIONS
Actions -h, --help Display this manual. -V, --version Print version information. --arch=architecture Update chroot for the architecture specified. -u, --update Perform an apt-get update. -g, --upgrade Perform an apt-get upgrade. -d, --dist-upgrade Perform an apt-get dist-upgrade. -c, --clean Perform an apt-get clean. -a, --autoclean Perform an apt-get autoclean. -r, --autoremove Perform an apt-get autoremove. -k, --keygen Generate a GPG public/private key pair for self-signing local apt archives, used for installation of dependency packages. Note that this requires a significant amount of entropy (randomness) and may hang on systems with poor entropy sources, such as headless sys- tems without direct user input. In this situation, it is advisable to create the key on a trusted local system, and copy the files to the build system by hand from /var/lib/sbuild/apt-keys/. Chroot selection CHROOT The chroot to use. Note that 'o', 's', 't', 'u' and 'e' may be used as abbreviations for 'oldstable', 'stable', 'testing', 'unsta- ble' and 'experimental', respectively. EXAMPLES
To update the unstable chroot: % sbuild-update --update unstable To upgrade the unstable chroot: % sbuild-update --upgrade unstable To clean the unstable chroot: % sbuild-update --clean unstable To perform an update, dist-upgrade, clean, autoclean, and autoremove for the unstable chroot: % sbuild-update -udcar unstable AUTHORS
