OK, so maybe I exaggerated, and would like a bit more of a crypto lesson. > On Wed, Oct 03, 2007 at 01:32:25PM +0100, Christopher Brown wrote: >> Note the --nogpgcheck Yes, I had previously considered and rejected this option.

But I am not comfortable with this explanation. Remember that on a second Fedora7 system the package check succeeds? Also, while I did not mention it in the previous posting, after seeing failures on the first system, I did try commands such as: [root@localhost ~]# rpm --import http://ftp.linux.ncsu.edu/pub/fedora/linux/development/i386/os/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-rawhide [root@localhost ~]# which as I understand things would have pulled in the appropriate changed key, if one had changed. But, remember, even after this: On 03/10/2007, Nelson Strother <xunilarodef@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >>> ...the directory listings of /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/ on the two systems >>> appear identical. namely: /etc/pki/rpm-gpg: total used in directory 64 available 1506220 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2007-05-25 08:39 . drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 2007-05-25 08:43 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1910 2007-05-24 16:58 RPM-GPG-KEY -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1706 2007-05-24 16:58 RPM-GPG-KEY-beta -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1519 2007-05-24 16:58 RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1105 2007-05-24 16:58 RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-rawhide -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1076 2007-05-24 16:58 RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-test -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1232 2007-05-24 16:58 RPM-GPG-KEY-rawhide which would seem to shoot down the explanation offered by Matthew, no?

Which there is. :) So now that the new kernel is successfully installed, I still want to understand why this escape route was needed. If I did not have a second system to have used as a canary in this coal mine, what would I have done to resolve this package check failure? Cheers, Nelson p.s. Chris, patience, maybe tonight I will have time to actually *run* the new kernel and see if it helps. :-) -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
