SOLVED: VLC installation Issues : FEDORA 18

1.      After installation of the spherical cow Fedora 18 64 bit on my machine,there was this popping message while i tried installing the VLC media player :


GPG key retrieval failed: [Errno 14] Could not open/read file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-free-fedora-18-x86_64

2.    But this could be solved as shown below :

su -c 'yum localinstall --nogpgcheck http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-18.noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-18.noarch.rpm'

and now do 

yum install vlc
