FC1 yum update Problems

[Edward Wynn]

Thanks for the hint - any ideas on how to get yum to ignore the GPG
keys? I had considered doing that myself but can't find how to do it.

Alternatively can't I just import the old keys from somewhere now?

You must have a fresh install of FC1...  Somewhere about a year or so
ago the fedora group had to install new GPG keys for the packages;
because their keys had expired about md-project with FC1.

It should be safe to get yum to ignore the GPG signature for the
moment to update your system...  Then import the fedora-legacy keys.
Or maybe someone could resign all the packages with the fedora-legacy
key.
