 In order to use the signature feature RPM must be able to run PGP
 (it must be installed and in your path), and it must be able to
 find a public key ring with RPM public keys in it.  By default,
-RPM looks in /usr/lib/rpm for both pubring.pgp and secring.pgp
-(which is used during package builds).  If your key rings are not

+RPM uses the PGP defaults to find the keyrings (honoring PGPPATH).
+If your key rings are not located where PGP expects them to be,

-The bare minimum you need to do to get PGP singature checking working
-is install PGP and run the following:
-
-.nf
-mkdir -p /usr/lib/rpm
-cd /usr/lib/rpm
-cp /mnt/crom/RPM-PGP-KEY .
-touch config.txt
-pgp -ka RPM-PGP-KEY pubring.pgp
-.fi

-You should then be able to check the signatures of packages produced
-by Red Hat Software using rpm \-K.
 
 If you want to be able to sign packages you create yourself, you also
 need to create your own public and secret key pair (see the PGP manual).
