Can you please explain this cron output to me, then? I'm not understanding what's going on in light of what you're saying: /etc/cron.daily/yum.cron: warning: rpmts_HdrFromFdno: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 1ac70ce6 public key not available for fortune-mod-1.99.1-2.i386.rpm Retrieving GPG key from http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras/RPM-GPG-KEY-Fedora-Extras Importing GPG key 0x1AC70CE6 "Fedora Pre Extras Release <pre-extras@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>" The commands that are being executed are these: /usr/bin/yum -R 10 -e 0 -d 0 -y update yum /usr/bin/yum -R 120 -e 0 -d 0 -y update Out of /etc/cron.daily/yum. Note that I had already imported the public key for Fedora Extras to install the fortune-mod package that was updated by yum. Why does yum appear to be downloading and installing a new key?
