But no such luck... Anyone know where to look?
The problem is that inside your chroot (the installroot) you don't have a key installed yet.
installroot might not be what you want to do ... it is going to create a chroot.
What I would like to do, is to be able to install "my environment" consisting of Apache2, MySQL and others in a clean "sandbox" (a new directory) in a reproductive manner. I want to be able to create any number of such sandboxes, each having their own config files and so forth.
I assumed that installroot could help me do this, but will read up on it. Are there any other approaches to accomplish this using yum? So far, I've used ./configure --prefix=$SANDBOXDIR and compiled from source.
If that is what, you should create a custom yum.conf for the chroot ... for the initial part of the install, set the repos to gpgcheck=0.
You can then chroot into the location and install the key inside the chroot, copy your yum.conf into the chroot and change it to gpgcheck=1 again.
It may be what I'm trying to do - but I'll need to read more about it. It seems awfully complicated though :-)
Thanks,
