Somebody scribbled about [expert] GPG and signing rpms. >Ok, > > Went to this page. > >http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/cookerdevel.php3
I did as well today in preparation for remigrating to cooker (ps I would like very much a gtkatlantic rpm) and ran into something strange. Also I got some wierd pages not found, such as qa.mandrakesoft.com - I wanted to get the public key, so that I wouldn't get those bad signature messages every time I tried to urpmi. By the way, the key import worked well this time with plf. Going through the directions as I type random keys on the keyboard results in this error: gpg: no writable public keyring found: eof Key generation failed: eof Is it a permissions thing?
