Description of problem: The man page describes the command line options --nopgp and --nogpg for rpm -- checksig. If used, rpm fails with "--nopgp: unknown option" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rpm-4.1-1.06 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: rpm --checksig --nopgp <Package File> rpm --checksig --noggp <Package File> Actual Results: --nopgp: unknown option --noggp: unknown option Expected Results: Man page should not list the options or the option should work Additional info: Same issue was already reported as Bug #65494 in Rawhide but the bug report was closed without fixing either documentation or executable.
The documentation will be fixed in rpm-4.2. Meanwhile, the options --nogpg and --nopgp have been replace by --nosignature.
I don't know if this is the right place to point this out, but the documentation in the errata for 8.0 in our webpages should be amended. they still contain the --nogpg option to test the rpms. see https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2002-266.html
Probably, but this ain't the place to get that fixed.
