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?

Thanks!
