VideoLan player urpm downloand failure


Hello

Not a complete newbie, but I'm no expert with Linux. I was trying to use, for the first time, the Mandrake RPM management system to download and install the VideoLan client and KDE frontend (videolan.org). I find the program (kvlc) and it infoms be that there are dependencies etc. I click install, a dialog says something about the downloand briefly then an error pops up saying, for several of the packages, that the signature key is bad. I can abort or continue, but continuing seems to install a non working copy. I presume, as afterwards I was able to successfully use URPM for another program, that the problem was either that the server's copy of program is or the download was bad. Can I force a redownload? If the server copy is bad, do I have to wait for someone to notice and fix it or would putting another media source help?

Thanks,
F*SH
