Termux-packages: gnupg: unable to search and receive keys

[alive4ever]

gpg is unable to retrieve public keys from hkp keyserver due to missing $TERMUX/usr/libexec/gpgkeys_curl

~ $ gpg --search-keys 0x62F25B592B6F76DA
gpg: searching for "0x62F25B592B6F76DA" from hkp server keys.gnupg.net
gpg: unable to execute program `/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/libexec/gnupg/gpgkeys_curl': No such file or directory
gpg: no handler for keyserver scheme `hkp'
gpg: keyserver search failed: keyserver error

[alive4ever]

It seems that gnupg-curl is available to provide hkp keyserver access. Closing.

Installing the missing package resolves the issue:
pkg install gnupg-curl

Thanks @alive4ever and @Skilly .
Is it possible to add gnupg-curl to dependencies of gnupg?

[Prowerdev]

Hi @Skilly , when I try to do
pkg install gnupg-curl
I get an error saying 'pkg command not found'
can you please guide me, why I am getting this. I am using mac and terminal

[Neo-Oli]

@Prowerdev If you're using a Mac this guide will not apply to you. This issue is about Termux; a linux environment for Android. pkg is Termux specific.

[Prowerdev]

@Neo-Oli Thanks for the reply.

gpg --recv-key 8BB9AD793E8E6153AF0F9A4416530D5E920F5C65 gives following error

gpg: keyserver receive failed: General error

And pkg install gnupg-curl gives E: Unable to locate package gnupg-curl error. Is there anything I am done wrong?

@AI-Pranto Need --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net.

gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-key 8BB9AD793E8E6153AF0F9A4416530D5E920F5C65

Thanks @xeffyr. One more question, How can I install gfortran compiler?

[xeffyr]

How can I install gfortran compiler?

It is a part of gcc package from https://github.com/its-pointless/its-pointless.github.io. See https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Package_Management#By_its-pointless on how to enable community repository.

[AI-Pranto]

I did it. But It shows gfortran: command not found. It suggests me to install clang. Anything I am missing @xeffyr ?

[xeffyr]

If you have installed gcc-9 then do setupgcc-9. That's unofficial repository and gcc here conflicts with clang.

Ask on https://github.com/its-pointless/its-pointless.github.io/issues if you need more details on how to work with packages from this repository.
