Ed over on the Fedora list helped me figure this out. The key is not overwriting and have to be manually removed first.

Here is my notes on the subject:

Brave Browser: Public Key error:

Fedora 32+

If you are receiving the following error trying to
install/upgrade Brave Browser:

Public key for brave-keyring-1.8-1.noarch.rpm
is not installed

And you did install it with:

# rpm --import https://brave-browser-rpm-release.s3.brave.com/brave-core.asc

Then you have to manually remove the key and reinstall it:

  1. find the key:
    $ rpm --import https://brave-browser-rpm-release.s3.brave.com/brave-core.asc rpm -e gpg-pubkey-c2d4e821-5d13a788

  2. remove the key:
    # rpm -e gpg-pubkey-c2d4e821-5d13a788

  3. reinstall the key:
    # rpm --import https://brave-browser-rpm-release.s3.brave.com/brave-core.asc

  4. verify it was reinstalled:
    # rpm -qa --qf '%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE} %{SUMMARY}\n' gpg-pubkey* | grep -i brave c2d4e821-5e7252b8 Brave Software <[email protected]> public key

Then go ahead and (re)install Brave Browser
