That makes sense.

Some of the packages I'm getting from the repositories are missing signatures (no big deal) or don't match their checksums. (Big deal, in my books)
If one is using yum, one incident of either of these stops the upgrade cold. (Good thing/bad thing.) The good thing is that nothing gets installed that shouldn't. The bad thing is that it rejects all the other packages too.
Is there a way to proceed with the install, automatically ignoring the unsigned packages and excluding the checksum missing packages ?
Is there a way to have yum query the user for permission to install each package (and not kill all of them if the user rejects one) ? BTW this was a pet peeve of mine with up2date as well.
Not really. B/c you'd have to recalculate all the dependencies excluding the packages that have bad signatures or bad checksums.
