Well, do you have PGP installed to verify the PGP Signatures?

Sounds like you did not configure it properly.  Perhaps you
don't have a key configured, or the name is incorrect, or you
didn't build a key, or....  There are lots of potential pitfalls.
The instructions are rather good if you read them from the
beginning to the end (admittedly it's hard to find the beginning).

If you continue to have problems, well, I can recommend a good
Security Consultant who can help you set it up (for a reasonable fee
;)
