- Import this repository's GPG key (good), or
- disable signature checking in Yum (bad).

IIGC key ID 1aa78495 is Dries, so visit http://dries.studentenweb.org, look at http://dries.studentenweb.org/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY.dries.txt to verify it looks GPG-key-like, then 'rpm --import http://dries.studentenweb.org/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY.dries.txt' should do.
