-----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
To install RPMCenter packages for Red Hat 8.0, you need to import our key to your rpm database:

1. Copy the above public key and save it to a file, say "rpmcenter.gpgkey" (or download from here).
2. Type in: rpm --import rpmcenter.gpgkey
3. (optional) Type in: rpm -qa | grep "gpg-pubkey" to see if the gpgkey is imported successfully.
4. (optional) Let's say you get gpg-pubkey-10abcd10-229a4fbb in step 3, you can do a rpm -qi gpg-pubkey-10abcd10-229a4fbb to verify the public key is the correct one. (You may need to do this multiple times before you find rpmcenter's gpg public key if you have previously imported another public key)
