This PKGBUILD verifies the authenticity of the source via PGP signatures which are not part of the Arch Linux keyring. In order to complete the process it is necessary to import the key(s) from the ‘validpgpkeys’ array into the user’s keyring before calling makepkg. There is a helpful article explaining this process by one of Arch Linux's developers located here: http://allanmcrae.com/2015/01/two-pgp-keyrings-for-package-management-in-arch-linux/

Instructions on importing keys from a keyserver and how to automate the retrieval process can be found in the Arch Linux wiki here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GnuPG#Use_a_keyserver This article also contains helpful information describing the installation of GnuPG, its configuration and usage.

Execute the following to import keys using gpg:

gpg --recv-keys <KEYID - See 'validpgpkeys' array in PKGBUILD>

The PGP signature check can be skipped by passing --skippgpcheck to makepkg.

Consult the makepkg manual page for a full list of options. [https://www.archlinux.org/pacman/makepkg.8.html]

Seems to build fine on armv7h. Maybe add that to the arch array?

@agentcobra, you need to import WoefulDerelict's public key. You can learn how to do it, but reading the message pinned on top of this message. I hope it helps!

I had some build options (other than the GPG ones) that went away when disabling ccache using "CC=gcc"

@peverous, I'm not completely sure whether this will help you out, but I've got the feeling that you aren't using ABS to build your package. If you don't know what this is or you are unsure, I suggest you to check the documentation available at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Build_System Once you have ABS set up in your PC, get https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/snapshot/ncurses5-compat-libs.tar.gz in your local, uncompress it and issue the following: makepkg -rsi PKGBUILD The above command should compile, create and install ncurses5-compat-lib package. I hope it helps!

I followed the steps provided on pinned comments to install lib32-ncurses (AUR). But error "/usr/local/MATLAB/R2014a/bin/glnxa64/MATLAB: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" still exists. I used "locate libncurses.so.5" and returns to me "/usr/lib32/libncurses.so.5" Am i doing something wrong? I new on Arch world!

I've had this issue intermittently on manjaro. Executing: gpg --recv-keys 702353E0F7E48EDB fixed this for me. (In response to an error with Matlab R2015a)

I'm using pacaur and got an error : ==> Validating source files with md5sums... ncurses-6.0-20161224.tgz ... FAILED ncurses-6.0-20161224.tgz.asc ...

If you're here because you think there's a problem with the key required by this package or you can't otherwise --recv-keys (which happened to me), here are a couple of suggestions. First, read this section on GnuPG: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GnuPG#gpg_hanged_for_all_keyservers_.28when_trying_to_receive_keys.29 Second, if restarting dirmngr doesn't work for you, there may be a problem with your local install, configuration, or a bug in dirmngr. Read this post on the forums for a solution (and kill dirmngr again): https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1703981#p1703981 dirmngr wasn't hitting DNS for any keyserver I used, so if you have a similar problem, this may fix it for you.

Getting a configure error: checking for dlsym... yes checking whether able to link to dl*() functions... configure: error: Cannot link test program for libdl ==> ERREUR : Une erreur s’est produite dans build(). However when doing configure "by hand" it is able to complete. I have no specific flags in my makepkg.conf.
