Great. When I tested Mint a few weeks ago over 100 MB of packets
could't be verified at all via apt for the latest updates because of
missing keys.

Brasero and all was fine. Not reproducable, but worth the attempt.

Already done ;-)

epel

elrepo -> fglrx (opengl for Kwin)

rpmforge-> kaffeine, vlc and the other nice stuff.

Of course setting protect=1 via yum priorities plug-in for base and
