Adding packages into a yum server and self-signing them

• Dump the rpms into a subdirectory
  

• gpg --gen-key

  
  
• Edit ~/.rpmmacros:

  
  %_signature gpg
  %_gpg_name Peter Parente
  

  
  
• In the RPMS directory:

  rpm --resign *

  
  

• gpg --export --armor key name > RPM-GPG-KEY-mine

  
  
• On both clients and server:

  cp RPM-GPG-KEY-mine /etc/pki/rpm-gpg

  
  
• On server:

  createrepo /my/repo/where/rpms/are

  
  
• Add a+r on files and a+x on directories for serving.
  
• On the client:

  rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-mine
