Installing some repos would probably involve installing keys, too.  I'm
not sure if you have to import them first, or if using the repo would
fetch them in.

You can local install already downloaded web browser packages using yum
and dnf, and if the install requires further files, such as libraries,
it should download them.  But unless you have very limited internet,
it's probably more work to organise than just installing them from the
repos over the net.

Rather than sneakernet, if they're on the same network, just ssh over
to one from the other, so you can compare what works on one, and cut
and paste commands between them.
