I don't understand why this error only happens on certain machines.

Do you have a GPG key that could be installed?

If I extract the rpm and install it, I get the same error.

Thx

Hi @b-keller

as the output says: "Package glpi-agent-1.10-1.noarch.rpm is not signed"

This really means the package is not signed.

But this also means this computer is configured with a constraint like: all installed packaged HAVE TO BE signed.

I'm not sure what you have to do, but if you trust our package, you can now try to install the rpm package with this command:

dnf -y --nogpgcheck install glpi-agent-1.10-1.noarch.rpm

@g-bougard

after further research, I noticed that on the machines causing the problem, dnf is configured with the following parameter:
localpkg_gpgcheck = 1
this parameter enables signature checking of locally installed packages

if I set it like this
localpkg_gpgcheck = 0
I can install glpi-agent without error

but the question remains :
you could sign your rpm or deb packets with your GPG key, which improves security by making it possible to check the integrity of the packet.

you're already doing it for glpi-agent release files with your SHA256 sums

what do you think?

[g-bougard]

I guess this is possible, but this would mean to us to manage a signing key and its usage, and people would also have to install it. I guess we can integrate that installation in the perl installer too.
But this is just actually not planned and definitively not a priority for us.

[b-keller]

okay, that's clear.

Thanks
