Probably a problem with your keyring. I just re-tested it with a freshly created unix user and it builds fine.

The build is failing due to a problem with the key in the comment below.

People who wish to obtain the maintainer's key, can
after verifying user 33238 is the GNU maintainer for units.

Successfully launched gpg --recv-keys 9AD8FC4162D7937CF64F972E1889D5F0E0636F49 and gpg --keyserver hkps://keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 9AD8FC4162D7937CF64F972E1889D5F0E0636F49 to import the key. Still getting "Verifying source file signatures with gpg... units-2.22.tar.gz ... cat: write error: Broken pipe"

I tried fetching the key with
gpg --recv-keys
, which produces the following message:Running
yay
then fails in the same way as before, seemingly because the key wasn't imported properly for the same reason as described here.Running the following works, however:
I had
keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org
configured in~/.gnupg/dirmngr.conf
, which I'm pretty sure was the default in several previous version of GPG. It seems as if keyserver.ubuntu.com has become the new default keyserver though, so I guess just switching to that fixes the issue. It seems crazy how error prone and user-unfriendly AUR key management is though.tarball commented on 2023-04-07 13:01 (UTC) (edited on 2023-04-07 13:01 (UTC) by tarball)

This package is failing to install for me since it was moved to AUR. If I run e.g.
yay
to update, the following error occurs:tarball commented on 2023-04-05 06:05 (UTC)
I really don't think (re)placing
/usr/bin/pager
in a totally unrelated package is a good idea. Although nothing from official repositories provides it at this moment, it sounds like a recipe for conflicts.We could probably add a wrapper script that finds the best pager (similar to Debian's
/usr/bin/sensible-pager
), sets the$PAGER
environment variable if it's unset, and then calls the real binary (which would have to be renamed in this case).Let me think about this for a few days.

Please symlink /usr/bin/pager to $PAGER by default, or, if unset, /usr/bin/less if it exists, else error. Help function doesn't work right without it.
