So you store gpg keys in the rpmdb. but rpm 4.1 also makes certain things not-so-worky with ts.addInstall(foo, 'a') so we needed the librpm404 and python-rpm404 bindings for systems running rpm 4.1 (ie: 8.0) (notably rpm 4.1.1 fixes this problem for me and the yum 1.9x line of code can be used under 4.1.1) ok - but rpm 4.0.4 invokes gpg externally - so you have to have an external gpg pubkey file to get the keys from. this page gives a summary for the ones used at duke: http://linux.duke.edu/doc/gpg.ptml useful in general though. that should straighten out the problem you're having. alternatively - upgrade to rpm 4.1.1, install the new yum and forget about rpm 4.0.4 entirely. -sv
