I am trying to install apt so I can install mplayer. Now I downloaded the
apt-0.5.15.cnc6-1.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm
and ran

rpm -Uvh apt-0.5.15.cnc6-1.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm


and it said I need

warning: apt-0.5.15cnc6-1.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID e42d547b
error: Failed dependencies:

Then I downloaded glibc-2.3.2-4.80.8.i386.rpm
and got this

Am I getting closer or whats the deal here? I installed apt on my core 2 install at work with no problems, but I must have missed something when I installed core 2 on my home pc. But I installed everything off the CD last night and still nothing. I have searched and searched and I am not sure what to do, I can't seem to find any info on installing glibc, I thought glibc was an integrl part of linux and linux wouldn't run without it.

Ok forget it close this thread I am an idiot.
I brought home the wrong CD's and I installed core 1, when I thought it was core 2. once I started using the core 1 binaries everything works just fine.
