Well either the gpg key has to be installed by default (see bug #138619 ) or yum has to default to not checking gpg signatures... Yes, I agree with this assesment. However, what is going to be done about it? I can see two options that would address the concerns mentioned in bug #138619: 1) Prompt the user to accept the key. 2) Configure yum to not check gpg signature. Actually, there is a third, and that would be let the user decide between those two. In fact, I would say that is the best option -- just let the user decide. which, of course, it does now. The user, if they don't want to import the key, can just disable gpgchecking in your config file. What I meant is that the installer should do this. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041020 Firefox/0.10.1 Description of problem: I just installed a pristine copy of Fedora Core 3 (i386). Immediately after installation and configuration, I went to update with 'yum update', but I got the following message: You have enabled checking of packages via GPG keys. This is a good thing. However, you do not have any GPG public keys installed. You need to download the keys for packages you wish to install and install them. You can do that by running the command: rpm --import public.gpg.key For more information contact your distribution or package provider. Obviously, yum is working as expected, but it is reasonable to expect to be able to update the system out of the box. I selected the "workstation" install, and selected a few additional packages. Don't know if maybe some "magic package" was ommitted somehow. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install FC3 2. Run 'yum update' (as root) 3. Don't you love bugs? Actual Results: You have enabled checking of packages via GPG keys. This is a good thing. However, you do not have any GPG public keys installed. You need to download the keys for packages you wish to install and install them. You can do that by running the command: rpm --import public.gpg.key For more information contact your distribution or package provider. Expected Results: A check for $1 million ;-) Additional info:
