Importing Jenkins RPM key fails for RHEL-7.x

[jaypoulz]

Default configuration values

rpm_key_imports:
  - key: http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/redhat-stable/jenkins.io.key
    validate_certs: true

Relevant task output.

TASK [repositories : import repository keys]
(item={u'validate_certs': True, u'key': u'http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/redhat-stable/jenkins.io.key'}) => {"changed": false, "failed": true, "item": {"key": "http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/redhat-stable/jenkins.io.key", "validate_certs": true}, "msg": "gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.\ngpg: processing message failed: Unknown system error\n"}

This has been an issue since around Friday, September 29th as far as I know. It could be that the key is in a transitional state, or that OpenPGP has been updated.

Workaround

1. don't validate the redhat jenkins cert (and accept the security risk)

In my case, I didn't know that key since I'm not deploying a jenkins master, so I have disabled the repo.
