</I>Well, not necessarily, third party repos could just provide their keys
and describe how users should import it. AFAIK, that’s what’s done on
Fedora side with the rpmfusion repo.

</I>I’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.
