yum wants to install tokyocabinet-1.4.48-3.el7.x86_64.rpm but warns it's unsigned

Latest response

Trying to set up an NIS slave server on a RHEL 7.2. "yum install yp*" wants to install tokyocabinet-1.4.48-3.el7.x86_64.rpm as a dependency but it warns me that the package is not signed.

What's the right course of action in this case?
Thanks in advance.

The "base" repository is not something Red Hat supply. It's either something from the attached Satellite, or a third-party yum repository. Ask the owner of that repo about the error, they may not have signing setup correctly, you may not have the repo key, or they may not provide signed packages.
