756 can't download with yum

[mikus]

In 8.2-756, file /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-i386 is missing. That causes 'yum install' on the OLPC to terminate prematurely with 'GPG key retrieval failed'.

[mavrothal]

Also true for 8.2-757

[tvoverbeek]

In /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/ there are the ia64 versions of the GPG keys, not the i386 ones. On a virgin joyride 2346 ext3 installation (also with ia64 keys) 'yum install' just works. Did we change from i386 keys to ia64 keys with the change from 2.6.22 -> 2.6.25? I had the same 'yum install' failure when upgrading from 8.1 (708) to 8.2-756.

Also true for joyride-2369. The latest build yum works with is joyride-2344 on my XO, (CL1 Q2E15 Q2E).

[sfabian]

Here's a work around:

cd /etc/pki/rpm-gpg
sudo ln -s RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-primary RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-i386
sudo ln -s RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-test-primary RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-test-i386

After making this change, "yum install screen" failed the first time but worked on my second attempt.

[cjb]

Not blocking, workaround available.

Fixed in fedora-release.noarch 0:9-3.1 in joyride-2399 and later.

Michael: approval to put this in the next stable build?

[mikus]

Replying to cscott:

Fixed in fedora-release.noarch 0:9-3.1 in joyride-2399 and later.

Still not fixed in Joyride 2412.

Tried yum install, eventually got message 'Importing GPG key ....', but then got message 'Public key for <package so-and-so> is not installed -- and it did NOT install the downloaded package.

The only way I got that package installed was by adding '--nogpgcheck' to the 'yum install' command.

[cscott]

mikus: try repeating the yum command. It worked the second time for me.

I don't know exactly what is going wrong, but I'd prefer to open a new bug for the 'importing gpg key' problem (can you record exactly what you tried to install and what the message was), since it seems to be different from the problem fixed here.

I suspect the gpg problem is just this:

[mstone]

Approved. Please add release notes if they are helpful.

If I remember correctly, for me it did not work the second time, either.

I don't know exactly what is going wrong, but I'd prefer to open a new bug for the 'importing gpg key' problem.

o.k. Ticket #8433

[cscott]

fedora-release.noarch 0:9-3.1 added to stable repository: http://mock.laptop.org/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?p=repos;a=commitdiff;h=94d60a3cc2643606f28d9c9a9f562020924c0537

Should be in 8.2 build 760 and later.

This should fix the 'key retrieval failed' error; for further yum GPG key issues see #8433.

[mikus]

I don't see a reason to keep this ticket open. In the last month or so the Fedora, etc., repositories have been fixed so that this problem is no longer showing up in 8.2 nor Joyride.
