Hi Vincent,

official)

So when I run "urpmi.update -a" it should get the new key, but it doesn't...

my urpmi.cfg for updates are:
localupdates //data/mirror/updates/10.0/RPMS {
  hdlist: hdlist.localupdates.cz
  with_hdlist: ../base/hdlist.cz
  update
}

proxad-updates
ftp://ftp.proxad.net/pub/Distributions_Linux/Mandrakelinux/official/updates/10.0/RPMS
{
  hdlist: hdlist.proxad-updates.cz
  with_hdlist: ../base/hdlist.cz
  list: list.proxad-updates
  key-ids: 22458a98
  update
}

How should this be fixed properly? Do I need to change something or is this
waiting for an update to the tools?
