Thingworx Foundation failing on install: Error: GPG check FAILED

Documenting this since I did not see anything posted or in knowledge base. Installer kicked out with the following message:

[06:55:31] Installing CINC...

Executing yum
Error running yum localinstall -y cinc-18.5.0-1.el8.x86_64.rpm: Repository packages-microsoft-com-prod is listed more than once in the configuration
Package cinc-18.5.0-1.el8.x86_64.rpm is not signed
Error: GPG check FAILED
[06:55:34] Failed to install dependencies: Chef Client

Now this package is provided by the PTC installer. I have gpgcheck=1 in my /etc/yum.conf which I think is standard or at least there is a STIG for it. Strange that this would report not signed. Its clear why its failing but I cannot understand why this was not caught, reported, written up and fixed by providing a valid signed RPM.

Downloaded cinc package and installed manually before installing Thingworx Foundation:

yum --nogpg localinstall -y cinc-18.5.0-1.el9.x86_64.rpm

make sure its this exact version at least for 9.7. It might be different with other versions. Interesting note is that this RPM passed the signature checks for RPM.
