Unable to install irssi (problem with PGP)

I haven't been able to install, and I get this:

[~]$ sudo pacman -S irssi
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...

Did you try the mit keyserver fix?

solar impulse · 2012-01-23 03:27:58

How do I do this?

You inform yourself...

solar impulse · 2012-01-23 03:38:21

I tried using the MIT keyserver but I still get the same error message.

I also couldn't find the SigLevel line in /etc/pacman.conf

Merge your pacnew files

In addition to endorsing skunktrader's suggestion, I might add that there has been any number of communications about this upgrade; starting from the message pacman spat out when you upgraded to 4.0 and including (not exhaustively), the mailing lists, these boards, the front page of the website, the IRC topic, etc...

If you are going to run a rolling release distro, you might want to start paying attention to some of this stuff.

Can I just delete pacman.conf and rename pacman.conf.pacnew to pacman.conf?

jasonwryan · 2012-01-23 04:50:57

Why don't you compare the files and arrive at your own conclusion?

Failing that, the wiki has a pacsave/pacnew article...

solar impulse · 2012-01-23 05:30:40

It's just that I'm not exactly sure what I need to do with the pacnew files...

Read it. Now.

Read it. Now.

"Once all existing .pacnew files have been located, the user may handle them manually..."

It never actually explains what one is supposed to do with the files.

Yes it does, in the rest of that sentence you quoted. I reiterate the advice given above, read the entire article, from the top.
