    Puplic Key not installed

    I am very new to the fedora and this forum. In fact this is my first post if it goes well. I am trying to install ncbi-blast and it gives this message "Public key for ncbi-blas-2.2.6-0.fdr.3.i386.rpm is not installed". Please guide me in this regard.

    Depends on where you're downloading the package from.

    Based on what google can tell me, I'm guessing this website.
    BioRPMs

    In which case do
    Code:
    su -c 'rpm --import http://serine.umdnj.edu/~golharam/biorpms/biorpm.pubkey'

    Fedora systems aren't really my thing, but try it this way
    Code:
    cd ~
    wget http://serine.umdnj.edu/~golharam/biorpms/biorpm.pubkey
    su -c 'rpm --import ~/biorpm.pubkey'

    Thank you very mcuh reed9. the problem seems to be solved. I did it this way. Opened the key webpage saved it in text format and run the command as you suggested in your first reply giving the name of file instead of url and then installed the software.

    Thanks
