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]

ta33ers you could do --force but more proper would be to see which package owns it : pacman -Qo /usr/lib/libtinfo.so.5

Unable to update, received error message error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files) ncurses5-compat-libs: /usr/lib/libtinfo.so.5 exists in filesystem

@hav3lock: not really. I only maintain this one, lib32 variant is not mine and I don't plan to touch it in any way.

hav3lock commented on 2016-06-21 04:26 (UTC)

@Barthalion, do you wanna merge lib32-libtinfo5 into this as well?

Barthalion commented on 2016-06-19 10:47 (UTC)

I added the libtinfo symlink to ncurses5-compat-libs, so I'll merge your into it.

Symlinked issue with YouCompleteMe plugin fixed now. Thank you.

xyproto commented on 2016-06-08 10:31 (UTC)

Thanks. Please also add 'libtinfo<=6-12' to avoid conflicts with /usr/lib/libtinfo.so.5 for older versions of libtinfo. conflicts=('libtinfo-5' 'libtinfo<=6-12') replaces=('libtinfo-5' 'libtinfo<=6-12')

xyproto commented on 2016-06-05 12:03 (UTC)

Would replaces=('libtinfo-5') be a possibility, for a smoother upgrade process for users that are trying to upgrade the android-ndk package?

electricprism commented on 2016-05-30 21:54 (UTC)

@WoefulDerelict - Thanks adding the GPG Key worked well.

@Barthalion -- windy 4javier and rafmav have the right idea. gnu sources are preferable; i have also been experiencing data corruption from invisible-mirror.net and will definitely NOT be importing that key to my keyring.
