First of all you might want to check out the errata page. Then you could use
the trusted method (as root) of rpm -K foobar.rpm, which will tell you if
the signature is there or not and valid or not, and the md5 sum is okay or
not.

If you urpmi packages, any signatures they contain should automagically be
added to the keyring, which is now in a database managed by rpm, and no
longer uses root`s GnuPG keyring. 

Moreover, it might help to update the rpm* packages, which have been
published since 9.2 was distributed, should you not have done so yet.

Under Mandrake Control Center the keys can be managed via `Software Manager`
- --> `Software Media Manager` --> Manage keys...

If you use rpm on the console, obtain the key (or export to file from
keyring) and import the key to the rpm-keyring with: rpm --import
foo.bar(.asc).
