You need to import the packager's public key into the rpm db on any host using which you want to use the epel repo's. The key is here.. http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6 Soo, you can do this... rpm --import http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6 To get it into your host's rpm db. What is happening is the rpm/yum utilities are, by default tying to ensure that you are only installing packages from a trusted source. This is very good for example if say someone broke into epel and inserted a version of some package, say, my-evil-version-of-httpd.rpm in place of httpd-<version>.i686.rpm. That person would not be able to "sign" the packages using the appropriate private key from which the epel public was derived and rpm/yum would catch it and warn you. If for some reason you want to override this behavior (bad idea) you can use the --nogpgcheck flaf to yum. -C On Wed, Jul 18, 2012 at 2:35 PM, <m.roth@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Doll, Margaret Ann wrote: > > I am trying to upgrade the perl packages on Red Hat Enterprise Linux > > Server > > release 6.3 (Santiago) > > > > I am getting the error when I try "yum update perl" > > > > Downloading Packages: > > warning: rpmts_HdrFromFdno: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID > > 0608b895: NOKEY > > > > > > Public key for perl-Compress-Raw-Bzip2-2.027-1.el6.x86_64.rpm is not > > installed. > > > > I see that perl-Compress-Raw-Bzip2-2.027-1.el6.x86_64.rpm repository is > > epel6-64-main and not a rhel server. > > > > Where do I get the public key and how do I install it?
