Greetings;

I was trying to install a few additional rpm's I downloaded from RedHat
Network. I ran into the following:

[root]# rpm -i libjpeg-devel-6b-33.i386.rpm
[root]# rpm -i xorg-x11-devel-6.8.2-1.EL.13.6.i386.rpm
error: xorg-x11-devel-6.8.2-1.EL.13.6.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: BAD,
key ID db42a60e
error: xorg-x11-devel-6.8.2-1.EL.13.6.i386.rpm cannot be installed
[root]# rpm -i alsa-lib-devel-1.0.6-5.RHEL4.i386.rpm
error: alsa-lib-devel-1.0.6-5.RHEL4.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: BAD, key
ID db42a60e
error: alsa-lib-devel-1.0.6-5.RHEL4.i386.rpm cannot be installed

I have more examples of some packages installing and other aborting.

In case it matters, I have a dual boot system with RHEL ES 3 on one
partition and RHEL ES 4 on another. The rpm's were downloaded from the
ES 4 channel and the installs attempted, both while ES 4 was running on
my system. The /home directory, to which all rpm's were downloaded, is
on a third partition.

Is the problem with the packages, or is it on my end?
