Yes definitely needed. Obviously I've been lax in forcing gpg keys on my
rpms because I didn't notice that it wasn't checking *blush*.
In this day and age we need to sign everything. I do think it should be in a
new line near channel= when you do smart channel show or
smart channel add < file.txt. Sometimes I envy Yum and APT for actually
having config files. Setting options from the cli gets messy (although
I still want the option).
