Re: [pacman-dev] [PATCH] makepkg: add flag 'recvkeys' to retrieve PGP keys from 'validpgpkeys' in PKGBUILDs

Are you aware of the |keyserver-options auto-key-retrieve| from GPG? I don’t say that this patch is useless, but just that this feature already exists elsewhere somehow.

Okay, I didn't know about this feature of gnupg, so thanks for that. Pacman seems to have a feature of downloading required PGP keys on demand, so I was going for something similar in the user experience with makepkg. It still might be useful for AUR maintainers as a one liner of how to fix PGP signature errors seen by users? Certainly easier to find than the above setting. As for automation, the above setting is a couple of extra steps but that's probably fine (with automation). Thanks, Alli
