Again, improved in some aspects, some fundamental problems remain:

- A broken three-line heading sucks

- The last paragraph asks the user if he recognizes the repository, but
there is no hint at all how he might go about verifying the information
that is presented to him.

- The alternative in the buttons seems not quite right. At least I would
expect a 'No, I don't trust this source' as the alternative to 'Trust
soure'. And explicitly not trusting it should be remembered. Ie, I don't
want to be asked again about it.

- The underlying cause of this is that we are asking the question at the
wrong time. The current task is 'installing a package', but the dialog
is about establishing trust with a repository. As has been pointed out
earlier, asking the question when the repository is added would be much
better.
