Thread: How to Import rpm signature
I need help with the following note in the documentation:
Many of the RPMs are signed with the PGP key of the package builder. Directories contain a CURRENT_MAINTAINER file which includes the name/email of the package builder and link to their PGP key. You might want to import the signature before you’ll install the RPM:
rpm –import http://link/to/the/pgp/key
I did a direct download from this location: http://yum.postgresql.org/9.3/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/repoview/
What is the correct format for importing the key – I found this example in the documentation:
rpm --import http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6
Thanks …

This is a bit outdated, we don't have CURRENT_MAINTAINER file anymore.
