When importing a GPG key, dnf gives output like this: warning: /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade/libnm-qt-0.9.8.3-4.fc23.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID 34ec9cba: NOKEY Importing GPG key 0x34EC9CBA: Userid : "Fedora (23) <fedora-23-primary>" Fingerprint: EF45 5106 80FB 0232 6B04 5AFB 3247 4CF8 34EC 9CBA From : /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-23-x86_64 Is this ok [y/N]: y Key imported successfully At first glance this makes it seem that the package libnm-qt-0.9.8.3-4.fc23.x86_64.rpm isn't signed, and that the key import is unrelated. I see two ways to make this clearer: 1) Keep the current messages as they are, bu after "key imported successfully" add a line like "signature of libnm-qt-0.9.8.3-4.fc23.x86_64.rpm verified". 2) Change "NOKEY" to something like "key not in keyring". As an example of the confusion this can cause, see bug 1286652 (this also confused me until I read the comment by Rex Dieter).
Hi Matthew, thanks for suggestions, we can do that.
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '23'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
The information "key ID 34ec9cba: NOKEY " is raised from rpm. Please can you change the information for something better on rpm level?
Fedora 23 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-12-20. Fedora 23 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
This NOKEY alert is still around, and users are worried about it https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/FWURUL5VOOTCNHCURNKD5S6PBAYV5OKB/
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 35 development cycle. Changing version to 35.
We can't very well change these strings within the existing API as they are relied on by scripts and programs (as sad as THAT is). There's certainly a demand for a saner package reading + signature checking API, when that one day happens I can promise it wont have NOKEY as normal output. But that is an upstream matter.
