Troy, can you clarify - these rpms will have proper gpg signatures?


P.S. (Sorry to beat the dead horse) If un-signed rpms are released by SL,
they block all further yum automatic updates (with error "package xxx is not signed")
until local administrator goes to each affected machine and manually installs
the offending packages.

P.P.S. I am puzzled why yum does not have the obvious improvement, where if
you install 100 packages and yum does not like 1 of them, it still installs
the 99 packages it is happy with.
