The following packages have bad signatures:
libsvgalib1-1.9.18-1mdk.i586.rpm: Invalid signature ((SHA1) DSA
sha1 md5 (GPG) (MISSING KEY) GPG#78d019f5 NOT OK)

Bad signatures are almost never a problem. I avoid these warnings by havin the below at the beginning of
/etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg


{
  verify-rpm: 0
  downloader: wget
}

    which ignores signatures and uses wget rather than curl


Thanks Tom - I wish I'd known that before I did urpmi --auto-select than spent ages hitting Y-Return! For some strange reason, the 10.0 Official Cds I burnt all had bad signatures.
