If I try running slackpkg upgrade-all I get a little message saying I need to go slackpkg update gpg ....however I have done that like 5 times and the message keeps appearing everytime I try running slackpkg upgrade-all

The GPG file is /tmp/slackpkg.eYz7dM/gpgkey

I a using the first UK mirror as there is no US mirror anymore for slackwarearm-14.1

After updating gpg, did you do
?

Yes I did

I found the problem, apparently it is a bug in SlackwareARM because on line 126 in file /usr/libexec/slackpkg/core-functions.sh there was

ARMedslack Security (ARMedslack Linux Project Security) <security@armedslack.org>

However doing gpg --list-keys showed this instead, Slackware ARM (Slackware ARM Linux Project<mozes@slackware.com>

Essentially I removed what was in line 126 on that file above with "Slackware ARM (Slackware ARM Linux Project<mozes@slackware.com>" without "" and I re-ran slackpkg update gpg and slackpkg update and I could successfully run slackpkg upgrade-all

SlackwareARM is is def. not as solid as regular Slackware...there are some very annoying things I have run into like this and the NTP not working.

It's not a bug - check the change logs and even the news section (front page) of arm.slackware.com; and Slackware ARM is def. as solid as x86, thanks :-)

Worked fine after I updated the date (ie; date -s "today's date [not 1969]". I keep forgetting the simple stuff !!!!
