The PKGBUILD needs meson, python-libevdev, python-pyudev, and python-pytest added to the makedepends.

This is an issue with the gpg setup/keyserver and not the package. As far as I can tell, there seems to be some sort of issue with the default gpg server at the moment (see https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=257527). You should be able to manually import the key via gpg --keyserver hkps://keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-key E23B7E70B467F0BF.

I can't reproduce this (with trizen). The error seems to come from the configuration step of libwacom, so the libwacom build system itself. The message indicates that something is wrong with file timestamps (especially the file creation date, i.e. it seems that the date of a newly created file is older than the files of the libwacom source zip). Unfortunately I have no clue why something like this could be happening.

Hello! When I'm trying to update this package with trizen, than I'm getting this error, do you know probably how I can fix this?

Thank you very much, this was helpful. I had to install base-devel before running makepkg. I used makepkg -i, so that I wouldn't have to figure out a second step.

This has been one of my first experiences with installing a package from a manually downloaded source file, and it has prepared me for my future with Manjaro, and possibly Arch down the road.

qzed commented on 2020-06-15 11:55 (UTC)

The file you're trying to install is not the package, but the source file. The package should end with .pkg.tar.zst (or .pkg.tar.xz, depending on the compression you've told makepkg to use). So, for the current version, the command to install should be pacman -U libwacom-surface-1.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst (or similar). I can also recommend using an AUR helper (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_helpers), which can fetch, build, and install the package for you with a single command.

As with Tornax07, I am also getting a PGP error.

sudo pacman -U libwacom-1.3.tar.bz2

loading packages... error: 'libwacom-1.3.tar.bz2': invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature)

Thank you! I'm so happy that I can finally use the touchscreen :) Thanks for this package!!!

FAILED (unknown public key E23B7E70B467F0BF) means that makepkg/gpg can't find the key for validation. You will need to make gpg aware of that key via gpg --recv-key E23B7E70B467F0BF before you can build and install this package.
