There should be no issue inserting keys into root's keyring, provided you do
it as root.

FWIW, if you're going to use sudo, just make sure the public keys for
Mandrake packaging (I believe they are all on the CDs as /RPM-GPG-KEYS or
something), are in the user-who-is-calling-sudo's keyring.  You won't get
those errors then.
