Thanks, I found it on topic, given Peter explicitly mentioned the
option, and very helpful. I've added a note to the suggestion in

Me neither, but
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman/Package_signing doesn't
suggest `auto-key-retrieve'.

Am I alone in finding Eli's comments unnecessarily sarcastic and
tiresome? I'm happy the Arch Linux community values a succinct and
frank exchange of views, but it could still be high signal without the
low-wit sarcasm by a few, and would be that bit nicer.
