PGP Key import failed #2

Closed NicoHood closed 7 years ago

NicoHood commented 7 years ago

Hi, I currently try to build the AUR package. I know I have to import the key, however gnupg does not find any keyserver. Looking around the internet it seems that you need to add a keyserver to ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf. On my local system there is this file with a lot of settings + descriptions. In my clean vm there is no such file, but the directory exists and gnupg is installed.

Do you have any idea which package is possibly missing? This keyserver might also be pulled in by thunderbird and the enigmail addon.

What's your exact command in importing the key?

NicoHood commented 7 years ago 
 gpg --recv-keys 0xE4B5E45AA3B8C5C3

As it stands in the readme

Okay, this sounds like its not an issue with snap-pac or my key in particular, so please file a bug report with GPG or post this on the Arch forums. I'm not going to be able to troubleshoot general GPG issues.

I've edited my pgp config file now and added a new keysever:

keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net #old
keyserver hkp://pgp.mit.edu #new

See instructions here: http://jotham-city.com/blog/2015/02/14/verifying-gpg-signatures-for-makepkg/

This also happened on my new system, so you might want to add this information to the FAQ?

Great! I'm glad you found the solution. I've put pgp.mit.edu as the keyserver in the instructions now.

Thanks, thats a super solution. You can also add it to the sticky AUR post.
