[Solved] confuse 2.7-3 install error: mainatainer gpg key is unknown

moyam01 · 2016-01-24 03:30:37

Hello,

A package that I am trying to install has a dependency of confuse 2.7-3, however when I try to install said package I get the following error:

error: confuse: signature from "Thorsten Töpper <atsutane@freethoughts.de>" is unknown trust

I have tried resetting the GPG keys for pacman.d using the following commands and am still running into the same issues.

# rm -R /etc/pacman.d/gnupg
# pacman-key --init
# pacman-key --populate archlinux

I have lookep up the package itself, and it seems to be flagged as out of date, but I don't think that that woruld prevent me from downloading the package.

Link to package: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/comm … 4/confuse/

I am also including the complete terminal below showing the outputs of the command above:

Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: I have tried flushing the pacman cache asp per the instructions found in https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pa … 9.22_error

# find /var/cache/pacman/pkg/ -iname "*.part" -exec rm {} \;

Thank you for your response. I tried that as well and am still receiving the same error. I will edit my post to reflect that.

A few sections down... https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pa … ion_failed

Same as https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=207957

(The packager's key expired, and there isn't an updated archlinux-keyring package yet.)

Thanks. I tried that yesterday and it didn't work, but tried it again just now and the package installed correctly.

Thank you

I had the same issue. To fix the problem I updated 'archlinux-keyring' package first, this brings new valid Thorsten's key. Then 'pacman -Suy' works fine.

The new archlinux-keyring package is still lingering in testing, having fun there I guess.
So it doesn't do a lot of good (yet) to the majority of people who don't enable testing.

`pacman-key --refresh-keys`, on the other hand, works perfectly, right now, since the maintainer's new key has been pushed to the public keyservers.

Thank you @Eschwartz! That solution worked well for me.

eschwartz · 2016-01-26 03:35:34

Well, the new keyring is already in core.

Thanks @anatolik, it worked for me!
