Description of problem: Fedora core now seems to require gpg keys for the material installed/updated on the box. I have found the following packages will not install due to problems with gpg not being able to verify the package content: Kernel-2.4.22-1.2140 binutils-2.14.90.0.6-4 glibc-2.3.2-101.1 gnupg-1.2.3-2 gphoto2-2.1.3-1 gphoto2-2.1.3-1 httpd-2.0.48.1.2 net-snmp-5.1-2.1 nptl-devel (requires glibc) php-4.3.4-1.1 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Fresh install Fedora Core 1 disks from website 2. Begin Up2Date from the RHN Alert Notification Tool 3. Select Packages to Install Actual results: Some packages install without issue. The others come up with a message the gpg key was not verified. If you continue, it will d/l the remaining packages, however when it goes to install, the first file it comes to with a gpg problem seems to be corrupted and up2date exits out at that point. Had to install packages 1 by 1 till I was able to locate all the files with this problem. Expected results: Should read and verify key and install normally as does RH9. Additional info: If I have missed something in the documentation or on the websites FAQ and how to lists please steer me in the right direction. Thanks Alan
Aha! I found the problem! If the rpm file doesn't get fully downloaded (which happens a lot), the GPG key will fail to verify, and give this error! Two ways of checking this: 1) rpm -Kv the-rpm-file-in-question.i386.rpm If the md5 checksum fails as well as the gpg signature, the rpm got cut off. 2) ls -l the-rpm-file.i386.rpm If the size doesn't match what's on the ftp site, the rpm got cut off. Workaround: download the file with 'wget -c .....' or something. Fix: make rpm check the size before the signature; make up2date do a better job of downloading.
