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]

Ah ok, I've followed the comments, the following indeed worked: > sudo pacman-key --refresh-keys > gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys C52048C0C0748FEE227D47A2702353E0F7E48EDB

Actually, it's ncurses5-compat-libs that's failing: ==> Continue building ncurses5-compat-libs ?

This is failing installation now because of checksum errors.

The package fails to build with gcc-5.3.0 (coming from package gcc-5.3.0-5). I get the following error: ccache gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../include -D_GNU_SOURCE -DNDEBUG -O2 --param max-inline-insns-single=1200 -fPIC -c ../ncurses/lib_gen.c -o ../obj_s/lib_gen.o _5161.c:1372:22: error: expected ‘)’ before ‘int’ Makefile:1027: recipe for target '../obj_s/lib_gen.o' failed make[1]: *** [../obj_s/lib_gen.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/ncurses-6.0/ncurses' Makefile:113: recipe for target 'all' failed make: *** [all] Error 2 I had clang installed and I was able to build the package by editing the configure line in PKGBUILD to have `CC=clang' option.

I actually disabled installation of pkgconfig files. The package is supposed to provide just the libraries anyway.

Barthalion commented on 2016-03-13 18:52 (UTC)

Added to PKGBUILD, although I never encountered this issue.

If you are a receiving an error about /share already being in the file system, I was able to fix this by add this flag to the ./configure line in the PKGBUILD: --with-pkg-config-libdir=/usr/share For some reason this seems to be necessary even though --prefix=/usr is already specified in the PKGBUILD.

Bobyl commented on 2016-03-11 10:15 (UTC)

On a fresh install, installation fails due to files already in the filesystem (and owned by ncurses 6).
