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]

I had to add "$pkgdir"/lib to the rm line under package() in order to prevent it from conflicting with ncurses.

# worked for me: $ gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 702353E0F7E48EDB

I had problem with key, it seems on pgp.mit.edu is not present. I found the key on https://keyserver.pgp.com/

hav3lock, I think pkgver and pkgdesc say quite clearly what it is: ncurses 6 built to provide ABI 5.

hav3lock commented on 2015-10-13 02:22 (UTC)

Is this really version 5 or version 6?

Yes importing keys with gpg works - please, maintainter, can you add postinstallation message with this key importing help?

I am having the same issue with PGP signatures: Verifying source file signatures with gpg... ncurses-6.0.tar.gz ... FAILED (unknown public key 702353E0F7E48EDB) ==> ERROR: One or more PGP signatures could not be verified! ==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build ncurses5-compat-libs. Someone has the time and expertise to solve this?
