Thank you for the help.  I think I was able to get a Livna key installed 
but just finding a list seems to be a problem.  I should thin they all 
should be available from one place rather than the complicated mess I 
have to deal with.

for instance google took me to the following:

]# rpm --import http://dries.ulyssis.org/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY-dries.txt
error: http://dries.ulyssis.org/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY-dries.txt: import read 
failed(-1).
Segmentation fault
Yet I can find the key as a text file at that address and could copy it 
if I could find where GPG keys are  filed.  The yum man page says 
nothing about keys and I couldn't "locate" any yum GPG key files.  There 
must be some because yum works for routine updates?

Why is this so difficult?   Is it just me?
