You could reconfigure YUM not to do a GPG check (see the yum.conf man file), though I'm loathe to suggest it. You could make an additional configuration file that doesn't check GPG, and specify your special configuration file when you do a local install (see the yum man file about specifying the configuration file to use). A half measure *might* be to disable GPG checking in the yum.conf file, but enable it in the individual repo configuration files. If you've manually downloaded it, and the one package can be installed without any worries about sorting out dependencies, you might as well use rpm. Using the yum command isn't gaining you anything. -- (Currently testing FC5, but still running FC4, if that's important.) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
