That's a well known issued with the "Contrib" mirrors. The contrib packages aren't supported by Mandrake and thusly do not contain the signature. You can do two things : 1. Ignore it. As long as the md5sum is OK it doesn't matter. 2. Get the Signature from the server. I don't know how, and don't care, but others on this list know the procedure. HTH Kaj Haulrich.
