GPG key retrieval failed:

Hi,

I've just installed Fedora 18. All went well until i came to the part to update.
When i updated, the packages were downloaded and then i got the message:

============
Total size: 258 M
Is this ok [y/N]: y
Downloading Packages:
warning: /var/cache/yum/x86_64/18/rpmfusion-free/packages/rpmfusion-free-release-18-2.noarch.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID 982e0a7c: NOKEY
Retrieving key from file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-free-fedora-18-x86_64


GPG key retrieval failed: [Errno 14] Could not open/read file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-free-fedora-18-x86_64
============

Can anyone tell me how i can fix this problem?
Thank you.

Regards,
Browser.

Try this

Code:
su -c 'yum localinstall --nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-18.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-18.noarch.rpm'

Similar issue with F18. I downloaded Flash Player from Adobe site and mp3 codec pack from Fluendo site - RPM's. Double click RPM and graphical Software Installer ask if I want to install - clicked install. Ask for admin password - enter. Then in F17, RPM is installed - in F18 I am given a warning of unsigned package, and then another warning of failed install.

I looked for sub menus in F18 graphical Software Installer, to force install - was unable to find. In F17 graphical Software Installer, I assumed when you gave your admin password, it forced install of unsigned package. This is not true in F18 graphical Software Installer.

Was unable to install RPMFusion too
