Unable to install new packages on Ubuntu 12.04, there is an error related to 'gpg'. Executed 'Update Manager' (installed all updates) but still the problem persists, following is the error when I tried to install Oracl JDK 7

I take it you want to install Oracles Java - I think the easiest thing for you to do will be to do it directly from the binaries provided from them: http://codingforme.wordpress.com/2012/05/14/installing-oracle-java-jdk-6-or-7-on-ubuntu-12-04/
