Hi guys,

I recently added all the new mirrors for mandrake 10 official so I could update my community install to official..
upon running:
urpmi --auto --auto-select
I got a ton of key errors... and it exited..


I had previously added plf and imported they key... but maybe I accidently removed the keys for the main urpmi sources...

how can I make sure I have all the correct keys imported to remove these errors and allow me to update???

If you have the ASCII armored key (there are 3 Mandrake keys in /etc/RPM-GPG-KEYS), you can import them into the RPM keyring by using "rpm --import <keyfilename>"


For example:
$ ls /etc/RPM-GPG-KEYS/
22458a98.asc  70771ff3.asc  9b4a4024.asc
$ rpm --import /etc/RPM-GPG-KEYS/22458a98.asc

The filename is the key ID. You can figure out which one you need to import from the error message when you install (MISSING KEY <xxx>)

Thanks for that dude..

I just did some reading up on man rpm

I querired all my keys:
rpm -qa gpg-pubkey*

then I removed them all:

rpm -q gpg-pubkey-xxxxxxxx
(where the xxxxxx is the id of the key)

Then I added all three from /etc/RPM-GPG-KEYS

Then I added plf again...

So far no errors...
so now I am running:  urpmi --auto --auto-select

and it is downloading nicely...
I was starting to think this was going to require a reinstall...
god I love linux :-)
