Fedup troubles

[Beartooth]

There must be something obvious here that I don't see :

Clue, please?

I never could get the GPG part of the Rpmfusion repo to work with fedup. I
ended up using --nogpgcheck (yes I am aware of the risks of doing that) so
that I could get fedup to complete. Once I had done the upgrade, I had to
manually correct some of the symlinks in /etc/pki/rpm-gpg to get further
updates to work properly without --nogpgcheck.

There is a point during the upgrade process where the generic
symlink RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-x86_64 has to be changed from pointing to the
F20 key to pointing to the F21 key, and this isn't working right. This
seems like more of an rpmfusion problem than a Fedora problem. So I ran
with --nogpgcheck, then manually fixed the symlink afterwards. My updates
work fine now.

That did it : the machine is running F21 now. Many many thanks!

I don't completely understand the caveat, though. I follow the 
need to fix the symlink, but I don't know how to do it.

Iiuc, the fault is a bug in Fedora somewhere, which I was lucky 
enough to hit only on the last machine I fed up; if that's so, there must 
be more of us -- and, I hope, maybe, a nice clear mini-tutorial already 
posted somewhere explaining how to accomplish the fix. Anybody know?

I ran into a similar bug.  From the fedup author(s) I understand they
are aware of why this situation happens, and are working on a fix so
it won't occur in future releases.

I installed the gpg keys before running fedup using something similar to 
this for the various rpmfusion repos.

rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-nonfree-fedora-21

+1   When I encountered that I, too, updated the keys then restarted 
fedup and it was successful.
