Hi Jerome,

A simple way would be to download the key (in this case 0x58857177) from a web-based keyserver. Try http://wwwkeys.pgp.net/ or http://pgp.mit.edu/.

Download the key (copy and paste it into a file) and import it into the *rpm* database using rpm --import. Then just repeat the command on smart. It will install the already downloaded RPM.

-- Regards, Aveek Bhattacharya IIT Bombay Hello Aveek, I did as you suggested with partial success. First I did : # rpm --import smart-gui-key error: smart-gui-key: import read failed. Then I googled around and tried a name change: # rpm --import RPM-GPG-KEY error: RPM-GPG-KEY: import read failed. Then I tried to import directly from the server: rpm --import http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x58857177 [1] 12833 # error: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get: import read failed. So I tried again: # rpm --import http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x58857177 # rpm --import public.gpg.keyerror: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get: import read failed. Then I tried to install smart-gui again and got these results: # smart install smart-gui Loading cache...
