This seems to be caused by not having GPG key from F26 installed. You need to install a correct key prior doing that. To my understanding, it's correct behavior unless you want to use --nogpgcheck option or disable the repo as you suggested. Please reopen. I do have the repository keys for Fedora 26 installed. It’s only the fedora-cisco-openh264 repository that fails. The specific key referenced in the .repo file is installed on the system. Using "sudo dnf update --nogpgcheck" does not help either with this issue. Whatever is happening with DNF, the error message needs to be more than just "Error" and "Failed". This happens in Fedora 27 as well. This started happening after I installed all the codec options available in Gnome's Software GUI interface. Totem actually came up with the popup suggesting the missing codecs and that's where I got them from. If anyone else comes across this bug on Google like I did, this is what I did to fix it. Go to your terminal and login as root or use sudo. $ sudo rm /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-cisco-openh264.repo Now dnf update should work i got this error while i was trying to install something, after some i found this page https://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?315298-dnf-Error-Failed-to-synchronize-cache-for-repo-updates i ran $ sudo dnf --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=updates update --refresh massive amount of updates/upgrades happened then: $ sudo dnf update it imported GPG key, then another, though smaller, amount of updates happened. hope this helps someone with the same problem. |
