HEy
Did you import the gpg key for each repo? I know freshrpms, dags,
fries, livna all have one and I think the rest do also.
Just got to each website and get the link to the GPG Key file and import
it like this
rpm --import http://freshrpms.net/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.txt
Thats for freshrpms. You only need to do this once for each site not
for every entry in yum.conf. or in yum.conf turn off gpgcheck
gpgcheck=0
This method is not recommended as the gpg key is used to verify the
authenticity of the rpm.
