# Arch Linux Repository
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Setup
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`/etc/pacman.conf`:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```ini
|
||||||
|
[relspec]
|
||||||
|
SigLevel = Optional TrustAll
|
||||||
|
Server = https://git.warky.dev/api/packages/wdevs/arch/$repo/$arch
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Import the signing key:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
curl -sSf https://git.warky.dev/api/packages/wdevs/arch/repository.key -o /tmp/relspec.key
|
||||||
|
sudo pacman-key --add /tmp/relspec.key
|
||||||
|
sudo pacman-key --lsign-key <FINGERPRINT>
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Get the fingerprint: `gpg --show-keys /tmp/relspec.key`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Install: `yay -Sy relspec` (or `sudo pacman -Sy relspec`)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Troubleshooting: unknown key
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
error: relspec: key "<KEYID>" is unknown
|
||||||
|
error: database 'relspec' is not valid (invalid or corrupted database (PGP signature))
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Cause: the registry signing key was rotated; the local keyring has the old key.
|
||||||
|
- `SigLevel = Optional TrustAll` does not help — a signature from a missing key still fails.
|
||||||
|
- `keyring is not writable` only means the command ran without root; it is not the cause.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Fix: re-import the current key (Setup steps above), then `yay -Sy relspec`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Check which key signs the DB:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
curl -sSfO https://git.warky.dev/api/packages/wdevs/arch/relspec/x86_64/relspec.db.sig
|
||||||
|
gpg --list-packets relspec.db.sig | grep 'issuer fpr'
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Remove an old key: `sudo pacman-key --delete <OLD_FINGERPRINT>`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
