Even if that would be the only way to get rid of those pop-up warnings?..
That's not true UnSpawn, what if I wouldn't have had an internet connection, to get rid of that pop up should someone buy an internet connection and then install something which they don't want ?

Ah, well, if you're looking for an answer to a hypothetical question then please excuse me while I move this thread to the /General forum...
I am not sure what exactly did you mean here by "hypothetical question".
Since this thread is not going to have a solution hence you are free to close it or move it anywhere you want.

If you didn't have an internet connection you wouldn't be using a package manager in the first place!
I remember having a similar problem in OpenSuse a couple of years ago (I was just trying it out). It was an update always showing, no matter if I had the latest version. I think I reinstalled it with yast or zipper and the problem disappeared... If you don't want or need to install the software signature, then maybe there's a way to tell the package manager to trust the source of the packages, no matter what? Or maybe an option to not notify about it? (not a safe practice, obviously! )
