Your right, it does say that should work.
SYNOPSIS
QUERYING AND VERIFYING PACKAGES:
rpm {-q|--query} [select-options] [query-options]
rpm {-V|--verify} [select-options] [verify-options]
rpm --import PUBKEY ...
rpm {-K|--checksig} [--nogpg] [--nopgp] [--nomd5]
PACKAGE_FILE ...
However, a few paragraphs below that section, it lists different options:
verify-options
[--nodeps] [--nofiles] [--noscripts]
[--nodigest] [--nosignature]
[--nolinkto] [--nomd5] [--nosize] [--nouser]
[--nogroup] [--nomtime] [--nomode] [--nordev]
rpm -K --nosignature appears to replace both the --noggg, and --nopgp
options.
