Author Yum won't update system
Fred

I just upgraded to Fedora Core 7, and now when I attempt to do
a yum update, It keeps failing because of public key errors like
that listed below. I've already removed about 10 packages that
were missing the public key, but I just keep getting the error.
How do I obtain the public keys for these packages which don't
have them after upgrading?

-Thanks

I just kept removing the packages which did not have a key,
and was then able to update the system, and re-install the
packages.

I just turn off the gpgcheck in the /etc/yum.repo.d/*.repo config file.

Might check to see if there's a yum plugin switch for gpgcheck

all you need is the public key from fedora download site. The public key
need to be install to allow update with yum. type the following in the
shell prompt using the root account and password:

[root@lnxfc7 ~]# rmp -Uvh ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/
linux/releases/7/Fedora/i386/os/RPM-GPG-KEY

This should install the public key on your machine.

have fun!
