Forget to address your question of installation on ydl.  If it is
available as a package you can use yum in the following way:

[aguilarojo@arakus aguilarojo]$ su -
Password:
[root@arakus root]# yum search gpg*

Note the star following g in the command statement I made after I went
into superuser mode?  That means to look for ANYTHING following the g
and to include that in its search; then yum did its job and reported a
list telling me what is installed and what is "available" to be
installed.  The smart thing to do from this point, since yum already
found it -- in this case gpg (but it could be any other program one
wishes also) is to let yum install it (gpg) for you as it already knows
where it is!  In that case the next command would be:
yum install gpg*

That's it...be well...Viva Brazil!!  Viva Carneval!!...Viva le
differance...oppss that's French...I think?

Whatever...have a great time!!
