OK - one step further, then another problem.  It seems I'm not getting the key 
installed.  I tried

rpm --import c431416d
error: c431416d: import read failed(-1).

rpmbuild --rebuild java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.07-1jpp.nosrc.rpm

RPM build errors:

Is this entirely the key issue?  What command should I have used?
