[Solved] AUR dependencies

So i wanted to install the VMWare Workstation.
When executing makepkg it says:

==> Missing dependencies:
  -> ncurses5-compat-libs
  -> vmware-keymaps
==> Checking buildtime dependencies...
==> ERROR: Could not resolve all dependencies.

But i installed both of them successfully (via makepkg), so how do i include them into it?

Are you sure? What's the output of

pacman -Q ncurses5-compat-libs vmware-keymaps

Note that just building packages with makepkg does not install them unless you specify the -i flag.
If you have built them without the -i flag, you can always install them via

pacman -U <filename>

.

No, you didn't - otherwise they wouldn't be missing.

Are you sure you actually installed them and didn't just build them?

Okay i thought i had installed already installed them. didn't knew of pacman -U ...

Well anyway now with it prints the following error (by pacman -U)

error: 'ncurses-6.1.tar.gz': invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature)
