[WBEL-users] Getting up2date to install locally signed RPMs

[Jesse]

I think I figured out the problem and it's on my end.

When I try to use up2date to install a package I haven't signed, it fails,
but it also leaves behind an rpm and header in /var/spool/up2date. Any
subsequent attempts to 'up2date' a resigned or even rebuilt package,
without incrementing the version number, will fail until you clear the old
package/headers from /var/spool/up2date. I imagine yum behaves the same,
but it has the 'yum clean packages' command to make it a bit quicker.

If I clear the bad (not signed by an approved key) packages from
/var/spool/up2date, my --resign'd package is accepted by up2date.

Moral: Make sure not to let any non-resigned packages get into repository.
