To answer the question (which is a perfectly legitimate question caused by 
a *BUG* in the FC4 up2date first-time-run where it fails to import the 
needed GPG key which, yes indeed _should_ be fixed as it was first 
reported during FC4test3): As root, run the following command:

rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora

That should import the needed key and stop the error messages (I have not 
tested this myself since I haven't yet gotten around to putting FC4 on 
something for testing).

If the file isn't there, then look in the root directory on the install 
CD/DVD for it and run the same command but pointing at that copy instead.
