Thanks Andre -- this worked great -- all of the rpms resolved to 'gpg ok'.

I truncated one file as a test and it failed.

I ran across this :

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Enabling_new_signing_key

...but the link for the F9 new kwy is broken and the sha1sum on the web 
page doesn't match the fedora-release-9-5.transition.noarch.rpm in koji.

http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/fedora-release/9/5.transition/noarch/fedora-release-9-5.transition.noarch.rpm

My sha1sum says :

9374b20a8e30f6d0423e2ffaae0dc985333c2664

rpm -K passed for it and the fingerprint of the 
RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-8-and-9 key matched OBSOLETES so I decided it was 
good and used it.
