[SOLVED] No matching GPG-KEY for repository 'extra'

aikempshall · 04-29-2022, 04:28 AM

I have a local mirror.

This morning I've done

Quote:

slackpkg update
slackpkg install-new
slackpkg instaLL multilibs
slackpkg upgrade-all

Without issue. This has worked without issue for several years.

For the first time ever I've tried to install something from extra. Namely tightvnc and fltk and get the following errors

Quote:

Any ideas what I've done wrong.

I guess you are using slackpkg+ and have added a separate repository definition "extra".
But "extra" is part of the Slackware distro and therefore you should not add it to slackpkgplus.conf .
There is a line in slackpkg.conf which determines the order in which a Slackware package is searched in the official tree:

Code:

# PRIORITY sets the download priority. slackpkg will try to found the
# package first in the first value, then the second one, through all
# values in list.
#
# Default value: patches %PKGMAIN extra pasture testing
PRIORITY=( patches %PKGMAIN extra pasture testing )

Therefore "slackpkg install tigervnc" should just work if you remove that faulty configuration from slackpkgplus.conf.

Hi Windu

Thanks for the reply

That doesn't appear to be the problem.

What I've now found is that the problem might only be on one machine. I've run the same command

Code:

slackpkg install fltk tigervnc

on two other machines and it works as expected.

The conf files all return the same cksums.

You did not answer and probably did not check my first assumption, which is that you defined a repository called "extra" in slackpkg+.
The fact that you can run "slackpkg install multilib" means you have installed the slackpkg+ extension.
The error "No matching GPG-KEY for repository 'extra' checking fltk-1.3.8-x86_64-1.txz" is the indication of a repository definition "extra" in slackpkgplus.conf,

This is what I've found on the failing machine

Quote:

grep extra /etc/slackpkg/*.conf
/etc/slackpkg/slackpkg.conf:# Default value: patches %PKGMAIN extra pasture testing
/etc/slackpkg/slackpkg.conf:PRIORITY=( patches %PKGMAIN extra pasture testing )
/etc/slackpkg/slackpkgplus.conf:#salixextra: https://download.salixos.org/{i486,x86_64}/extra-15.0/

This is what I've found on one of the machines where the command works -

Quote:

grep extra /etc/slackpkg/*.conf
/etc/slackpkg/slackpkg.conf:# Default value: patches %PKGMAIN extra pasture testing
/etc/slackpkg/slackpkg.conf:PRIORITY=( patches %PKGMAIN extra pasture testing )
/etc/slackpkg/slackpkgplus.conf:#salixextra: https://download.salixos.org/{i486,x86_64}/extra-15.0/

both exactly the same

The problem seems to be that on the problem machine

/var/lib/slackpkg/gpg/GPG-KEY-extra.gpg was missing

Tried

Code:
```
slackpkg update GPG
```
still didn't work
removed all appropriate keys from the gpg keyring then ran slackpkg update GPG[/CODE] still didn't work
copied /var/lib/slackpkg/gpg/GPG-KEY-extra.gpg from a working machine to the problem machine - It now works.

No idea how /var/lib/slackpkg/gpg/GPG-KEY-extra.gpg got removed in the first place.

The command may be case-sensitive. The "GPG" should be "gpg" according the manual page.

That is the million-dollar question.
