On 10.0, I have problems with the installation of the Packman keys.
The vendor and release attributes of some keys are different than expected with the RPMDB declaration in the /usr/lib/rpm/gnupg/*.asc files. Then apt4rpm tried to import them every time anew and aborted at the first error. The error is mentioned durign apt-get upgrade.
I repaired the problem locally by patching the *.asc files. I always wanted to trace that problem, but didn't have the time to invest -- I mentioned it on the packman list, but there the rpmkeys maintainer cannot reproduce my situation.
Just in case that you stumble over this error yourself.

Thanks. But what are the disadvantages of not checking signatures?
I hear the packages will never get updated if they don't have
signatures or something like that...
I think you heard wrong. You just need to permit the installation with the --no-ch switch. But better install the signatures aka rpmkeys.
