Easy Urpmi And Gpg Keys


After reading the excellent postings on this forum I have downloaded and installed the GPG keys from the download site in London but still get the same bad signature errors and still cannot download applications by this means.
Very grateful for any help and thanks in advance.

If it's not importing the keys, try another mirror perhaps?
And if you do try another mirror, take this advise from the site: "Also, you might want to type urpmi.removemedia -a first, in order to reinitialize urpmi's setup."

Urpmi remove

Thanks again but my urpmi doesnt recognise removemedia option and says its part of a J package whatever that is, so stuck with sunsite for time being.

So thanks again.

Try adding a different repository anyway, somewhere down the bottom there is an option to add a prefix to each media name. With that you could append alt or something like that to distinguish them from the others.
