Seems the solution varies for different machines?
For my Fedora 42 machine I got the message and found a key it 
mentioned on a web page, and removed it, and update in stalled.

Tried on some others, and it came back with key doesn't exist, and 
the search didn't show a google key at all??
Changed the gpgcheck=0 in the repo, and then it installed, and it 
worked. Then changed back to =1, and did a reinstall to check.

Sometimes different combinations worked, but eventual got them 
all updated

Currently getting these result.
On this notebook. Fedora 42
 
rpm -q gpg-pubkey --qf 
'%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}\t%{SUMMARY}\n' | grep 
'Google'
gpg-pubkey-d38b4796-570c8cd3    Google Inc. (Linux Packages 
Signing Authority) <[email protected]> 
public key

These with Fedora 43

Had a few give this?
gpg-pubkey-eb4c1bfd4f042f6dddccec917721f63bd38b4796-570c8c
d3      Google Inc. (Linux Packages Signing Authority) 
<[email protected]> public key

Just have one show this?

6       Google, Inc. Linux Package Signing Key

<[email protected]> public key

On this notebook removed the different key, did a reinstalled, and it 
talked about an expired key, and seems to install key, but check 
shows the old one again. Perhaps 42 and 43 are different???
