ggnoredo: yes, there was a recent issue with libselinux, which I am currently fixing. I have just updated libsepol to version 3.9. If you encounter any issue, please report it on https://github.com/archlinuxhardened/selinux . Thanks!
maintainer broke something
-> could not find all required packages: libsepol >=3.9
aur/libsepol 3.8-1 (+113 0.27) (Out-of-date: 2025-04-15) (Installed)
One call pull Petr's keys from GH using the following URL, which has the new key.
Here is what I see when I look at the downloaded key:

So what can we do now? Is this package orphaned?

Hello,
Petr Lautrbach's gpg key is no longer valid
'68D21823342A13683AEB3E4EFB4C685B5DC1C13E' # Petr Lautrbach lautrbach@redhat.com
This may just be a case of Petr forgetting to refresh his keys to the keyserver. For now I'm going to ignore the package.
Trying to upgrade from 3.7-1 to 3.7-2 using pikaur, I get the error:
Verifying source file signatures with gpg... libselinux-3.7.tar.gz ... FAILED (unknown public key 4695881C254508D1)
Indeed the .tar.gz is signed with key 1BE2C0FF08949623102FD2564695881C254508D1 in .tar.gz.asc. PKGBUILD lists validpgpkeys = 63191CE94183098689CAB8DB7EF137EC935B0EAF (Jason Zaman perfinion@gentoo.org) and B8682847764DF60DF52D992CBC3905F235179CF1 (Petr Lautrbach plautrba@redhat.com).
I am very hesistant to install a package with an unknown public key. Any ideas how to fix this?
Hello, I am currently on holidays with limited Internet connectivity. I saw your message but will probably only be able to work on it from Monday January, 6th.
By the way, I successfully built libselinux in the GitHub Actions CI 2 weeks ago (https://github.com/archlinuxhardened/selinux/actions/runs/12337081682/job/34430332766) and swig has recently been updated to 4.3.0-1 since then (https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/swig/). The build issue could probably also be fixed by (temporarily) downgrading swig.
The problem is fixed by adding this patch: https://github.com/SELinuxProject/selinux/commit/8e0e718bae53fff30831b92cd784151d475a20da
