@Michael: The command with the nongpgcheck is the one RPMFusion website
"recommends" by default... The problem here is, Until you import the GPG
keys,
the STABLE branch of RPMFusion will not work with F15 even when the updated
packages for F15 are available in there...

The keys you're importing in my "HowTo" are the official keys I obtained
from
the RPMFusion Website, I just located them in a private CDN to get easier
the
importing job,

By using that method I explain, users can install RPMFusion STABLE in F15
without errors when trying to install apps or updating, Besides, the users
can verify the keys I'm supplying to them.

Other way to "fix this" is to enable RPMFusion Rawhide in your F15 instead
of Stable, but the point of the post is provide the people a way to enable
the stable
as RPM Fusion is kinda having problems right now.
