    apt4 rpm suse 10.0 serious key signing problem

    Hi,
    it´s my first post here, so I would like to say hello.

    My distribution is Suse 10.0 and I have been working with apt as package manager for some time without problems.
    Now I wanted to update kde from 3.5.3 to 3.5.5., but whatever I try to do, it says: key signing problems.

    I tried to import all the keys: rpm import...

    Then I tried this:

    apt install --no-checksig kdebase3
    You don't seem to have one or more of the needed GPG keys in your RPM database.
    Importing them now...
    GPG key not imported correctly
    GPG id: gpg-pubkey-5f6842a4-3f045e14
    File: /usr/lib/rpm/gnupg/packman-henvol.asc
    E: Error while running transaction
    E: Handler silently failed

    rpm --import ftp://ftp.links2linux.de/pub/packman/public-keys.asc

    and I also changed the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/gpg-checker.conf from
    GPG::Check true; to false

    it still told me there were missing keys. I am beginning to suspect a serious problem.
    I hope this is quite clear. Please excuse my english, I am doing my best. Thanks a lot for your help and ideas.

    Hi,
    nobody had an idea about how to proceed?
    Whatever I do, the problem is still there. How can it say key problems when I used th option "--no-checksig" and when I even deactivated the option in the configuration file?
    What´s going on? Thanks for any help
