Why wouldn't this apply? Both the documentation for 'dnf' and
'dnf.conf' use similar terminology "gpgcheck", and the man page says
"Skip checking GPG signatures on packages (if RPM policy allows)." If
it doesn't apply, it seems like it definitely *should*, for
intuitiveness-sake. At the very least, if it doesn't apply, then the
documentation is seriously deficient.
