Public Key Not Installed

For some reason yum is having problems the past day. Every time I try to install something with yum I keep getting an error like:

Public key for libid3tag-0.15.1b-3.fc5.rf.i386.rpm is not installed

Edit: I meant to add that if I try to get a key I get this:

[root@localhost ~]# rpm --import http://rpm.livna.org/RPM-LIVNA-GPG-KEY
warning: cannot get exclusive lock on /var/lib/rpm/Packages

You have an unfinished rpm update hanging out there, perhaps?

Code:

ps -ef | egrep 'rpm|yum' | grep -v 'grep'

Well that seems to have worked. I am not getting the no key error when yum tries to install things now. Thank you very much!

I'm trying to install linneighborhood and when I do a yum install I get this message:

Public key for linneighborhood-0.6.5-3.2.fc6.rf.x86_64.rpm is not installed

How do I get a public key for this?

In case someone hit this thread like I did:

The provider of your .rpm signed it with its private key to proove it is a genuine file from them.
We can verify it with the public key (but not sign, see wikipedia RSA PKI about public/private keys FYI)

Practically that means you need to find the public key and import it
in my case it was a file named: RPM-GPG-KEY ( from Red HAt distro)

suggestion: find / -name "*GPG*"

then import the public key with: rpm --import *GPG*
and it should be ok.

In my case:
Public key for openoffice.org-libs-1.1.5-10.6.0.2.EL4.i386.rpm is not installed
[root@taz isoCDs]# rpm --import /mounted_RHEL4.6-i386-ES-disc4/RPM-GPG-KEY
[root@taz isoCDs]# yum install openoffice.org.i386
...

Cheers,
Philippe

When I tried this I got:

root 2663 1 0 Aug12 ? 04:26:58 /usr/bin/python /usr/sbin/yum-updatesd

Tried yum update python and got:

....
Could not find update match for python
No Packages marked for Update/Obsoletion

Instead of originally installing the regular rpm package, I then installed the source RPM package according to:

http://wiki.inisec.com/index.php/Iperf

and the application installed and ran great. I am really appreciating the ease of Debian/Ubuntu updates....I am giving up on redhat/centos and the RPM stuff soon.

Thanks a million pweltz.
I hit this thread and I was completely stuck. Your contribution really helped!

[root@taz isoCDs]# yum install openoffice.org.i386

In my case one of these keys worked:
sh-3.2# rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-redhat-beta
sh-3.2# rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-redhat-auxiliary
sh-3.2# rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-redhat-release

If you dont have installed the GPG Key, you will go to "Dag RPM Repository FAQ page" (dag.wieers.com/rpm/FAQ.php#B2) and see the section "How to configure to use RPMforge" you can use rpm command into list of the GPG keys by Linux distribution.

You can sometimes add the --nogpgcheck flag and skip the key verification.

Code:

yum install --nogpgcheck yum-downloadonly

aman078 · 03-07-2013, 02:03 PM

you can disable the check by editing /etc/yum.repos.d/your_file.d and writting gpgcheck=0

Now that almost ten years have elapsed, creating an account and logging in to "thank you" for this information as I install a completely unrelated application on Cent OS. THANK YOU!!!

agree, it's the simpliest way

John VV · 09-18-2016, 02:01 PM

yevgeniyo
you do realize this is a 10 YEAR old thread

and that fedora NO LONGER uses " yum"
so there is NO yum.conf any more

so you are saying the simplest way is to use something THAT DOSE NOT EXIST

yevgeniyo · 09-18-2016, 08:32 PM

Don't be nudnik please. My answer was related centos or rhel...
