Surely you are right but I did not import anything for the packages that worked and used a gpg key. I have never imported any key that I was aware of and have no idea yet how to do that or how to check a fingerprint (other than using paper, ink and the FBI :). I did think about bringing it to the installfest Saturday but that is close to the end of my return window at Fry's and I need to restore XP before returning it so I won't bother. Thank you muchly for the offer though.
