I never could get the GPG part of the Rpmfusion repo to work with fedup.
I ended up using --nogpgcheck (yes I am aware of the risks of doing
that) so that I could get fedup to complete. Once I had done the
upgrade, I had to manually correct some of the symlinks in
/etc/pki/rpm-gpg to get further updates to work properly without
--nogpgcheck.
There is a point during the upgrade process where the generic symlink
RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-x86_64 has to be changed from pointing to the F20 key
to pointing to the F21 key, and this isn't working right. This seems
like more of an rpmfusion problem than a Fedora problem. So I ran with
--nogpgcheck, then manually fixed the symlink afterwards. My updates
work fine now.
That did it : the machine is running F21 now. Many many thanks!
I don't completely understand the caveat, though. I follow the
need to fix the symlink, but I don't know how to do it.
Iiuc, the fault is a bug in Fedora somewhere, which I was lucky
enough to hit only on the last machine I fed up; if that's so, there must
be more of us -- and, I hope, maybe, a nice clear mini-tutorial already
posted somewhere explaining how to accomplish the fix. Anybody know?
