[WBEL-users] A bugette in up2date

Real silly one this, but might catch out the clueless numpties among us
[FX: waves hand] ;-)

Running "up2date -u" on a fresh WBEL3 respin2 install gives the following :-


Your GPG keyring does not contain the White Box public key.

Without it, you will be unable to verify that packages Update Agent downloads
are securely signed by.

Your Update Agent options specify that you want to use GPG.

To install the key, run the following as root:
     rpm --import /usr/share/rhn/RPM-GPG-KEY


So, after duly running the rpm command above, I tried again - same error.

The key specified above is the RedHat key - to get the whitebox key, it
needs to be RPM-GPG-KEY-whitebox. The output from up2date is incorrect...

Apologies if the world and his wife already knew this - I don't normally
use up2date at all...

Vic.
