I notice you have gpgcheck turned on there. I tried running "yum
install tidy" after plugging in your conf, and I the install complains
about not being able to find the public key.
How do I add the public key to the list? I tried adding it to my
regular public key list (gpg --recv.key 1ac70ce6) as root, but that
didn't seem to do it.
