You'll need to have the rawhide key installed - to do this, do

'up2date -u fedora-release' 

after subscribing to the updates channel, and
then 

'rpm --import /usr/share/doc/fedora-release-0.94/RPM-GPG-KEY-rawhide'.

It is also possible but not as secure to disable GPG signature checking
by running as root

up2date --config

select the Retrieval/Installation tab

Uncheck Use GPG to verify package integrity.

This choice should be used as last resort when you believe the package
is from a trusted source and cannot figure out how to import the proper
key.
