As I said, it does not work for yast itself but it shuts up rug when
registering the repository. It would be useful if there was a way to shut
yast up when the repository is not signed.
(I would prefer an unsigned repository over a signed in my particular case)

I tried that and while the documentation may be sufficient for an
experienced user I had some troubles understanding what key it used.
Could you indicate in that document that you can use a different key using
--default-key '<name>' and replace a key by default using --yes ?
That would have saved me 20 minutes understanding that it takes by default
the key that is first in your keyring (which is a SuSE build key which
expires in 2008). Also adding the proper commands to create a new key may
be useful in that document as well.
But again thanks for showing me the path to success :) I am a few steps
closer to where I want to be. (Now doing the same for NLD9 will be a real
challenge :-/)
PS I am adding repository signing support in mrepo. YOU metadata
generation in mrepo is planned as well (for NLD9) but much harder to do as
NLD9 comes with a binary that I cannot rebuild on SLES10. Any pointers on
how to generate a YOU repository on SLES10 would be thankfully accepted
too :)
