This link may help you for the bad signature error:
http://www.schwer.us/journal/2004/06/01/fixing-the-bad-signature-rpm-error-i
n-mandrake/

I don't use Mandriva currently but when I did I used Easy Urpmi to update my
sources, heres the link here: http://easyurpmi.zarb.org/  after installing
the sources you should have access to all the rpm's you need ;)

Hope that helps a bit anyway.

Regards

Nathan

Subject: [klug] Gidday + one question

Hi all,

I joined this list about two years ago but it's been rather quite for a
while ...not sure if it's (a) not much is happening or (b) I went back to
windows and haven't bothered to keep in touch so I was dropped from the
list?

Anyway, as a desktop user it's getting easier for me (and my elk) to use
Linux now - I still have to use windows for DTP (InDesign) as Scribus can't
import .pdf (as yet) but not doubt it will happen (it has to, re designers
moving documents from one to another).

I have one question   ...I'm using Mandriva LE 2005 and have installed 
about 4 urpmi's (if that's the correct term? - no it's not, but anyway I
copied and pasted into my terminal as root the correct url's listed on a
couple of urpmi source sites). However, every package I try to install from
these sites give a 'bad signature'. Some I were able to install aok but the
very one I want - koffice 1.3.5 wont!! - (Kword can open and edit .pdf
files, just like Adobe Acrobat Suite).

Is there anyone who can help me on this?

Thanks,
Peter Dinnan
