| 69 | Starting with !VirtualBox 3.0.8 we provide a yum-style repository for Fedora/RHEL/openSUSE. Furthemore, all .rpm packages are signed. The Sun public key for apt-secure can be downloaded [http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/sun_vbox.asc here]. You can add this key with |
| 70 | {{{ |
| 71 | sudo rpm --import sun_vbox.asc |
| 72 | }}} |
| 73 | or combine downloading and registering: |
| 74 | {{{ |
| 75 | wget -q http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/sun_vbox.asc -O- | rpm --import - |
