Hi, guys,
    After googling this issue on upgrading fedora, working until
2:30 this morning, and not getting anywhere, I hope you guys can help.

    I followed the guide:
https://fedoramagazine.org/upgrading-fedora-24-fedora-25/
    using the gnome terminal.
    things seemed to go well, until I got to the command

    # dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=25

    It went through the usual steps, I answered y and it completed,
but then it prompted me with an error message about google earth and
said to retry with --allowerasing, which I did, but still got the same
error message:
    warning: /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade/google-earth-stable-
6.0.3.2197-0.x86_64.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 7fac5991:
NOKEY
The downloaded packages were saved in cache until the next successful
transaction.
You can remove cached packages by executing 'dnf clean packages'.
Error: Public key for google-earth-stable-6.0.3.2197-0.x86_64.rpm is
not installed

    So I did a gpg install for the public key of google-earth.
    Same error message.
    just to try I did:
    #dnf system-upgrade reboot

    No joy.  Spent several hours googling for the error, for the
issue with gpg key, various other related lookups, but didn't find
anything that helped.  

    So!! Help!!!!

I had the same problem. Since it has been a week or so, and memory is getting creaky ...

There is a new version of Google Earth (ver 7?, someone help me). It doesn't use the google-earth.repo

So, I removed/backup up the google-earth.repo from /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory.

dnf removed google-earth-stable (I think that's the right name)

and!

went into the /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade (I think) and rm'd the google-earth package that was sitting there.

From memory, that's what worked for me (but YMMV)

Once the upgrade completed, and everything seemed to be functioning correctly, I then did a
dnf install <Path/And/Name/Of/google-earth-stable> package that I downloaded from the Google Earth page.

Max,

First off, let's start with the fact that article you linked [0] LEFT out a very important step,  disabling ALL 3rd party and copr repos *PRE* upgrade.

So to use my layout as an example, the missing Step 1a would comprise of:

dnf repolist
negativo17 - Steam                                                                                     27 kB/s | 8.2 kB     00:00   
Jitsi                                                                                                 6.6 kB/s | 3.9 kB     00:00   
repo id                                                repo name                                                                status
*fedora                                                Fedora 25 - x86_64                                                       51,669
fedora-spotify                                         negativo17 - Spotify                                                          5
fedora-steam                                           negativo17 - Steam                                                           20
google-chrome-beta                                     google-chrome-beta                                                            3
google-talkplugin                                      google-talkplugin                                                             1
jitsi                                                  Jitsi                                                                         6
keybase                                                keybase                                                                       1
*rpmfusion-free                                        RPM Fusion for Fedora 25 - Free                                             541
*rpmfusion-free-updates                                RPM Fusion for Fedora 25 - Free - Updates                                    40
*rpmfusion-nonfree                                     RPM Fusion for Fedora 25 - Nonfree                                          169
*rpmfusion-nonfree-updates                             RPM Fusion for Fedora 25 - Nonfree - Updates                                 11
*updates                                               Fedora 25 - x86_64 - Updates                                              3,567

and for an dnf system-upgrade I'd do:

sudo dnf config-manager --set-disabled={keybase,fedora-\*,Jitsi,negativo17-\*,google-\*, rpmfusion-\*}  --set-enabled={fedora,updates}

sudo dnf system-upgrade --refresh --releasever=25 download

sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot

sudo dnf system-upgrade clean
