+Fedora side with the rpmfusion repo.
+&gt;<i> What if urpmi automatically trusts packages signed with a key signed

+</I>I&#8217;ve never used guis on Fedora, but for me you could as well install the
+rpm containing the third party keys with yum and the --nogpgcheck
+switch.
+
+I guess this option should be implemented in urpmi for that to work on
+our side.
