When requesting changes, please include detailed reasoning for the change.

If you receive this error when trying to build, it is because you have not imported the GPG keys used for verification.

==> ERROR: One or more PGP signatures could not be verified!

You have two options:

1) Import the two keys into your keyring. ArchWiki article. You can find the key IDs in the PKGBUILD file, in the validpgpkeys array. (recommended)

2) Alternatively, you can skip this verification by passing the --skippgpcheck argument to makepkg when building. (not recommended)

For anyone struggling with zfs support against the new 6.10-X kernels, have a look at:

Updated (it changed), correct and current URL:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/zfs-dkms-staging-git

Good research and work done ^there!

That approach works on both of my pure Arch (btrfs) encrypted {/, /boot and swap} fully updated systems providing zfs support.

+++++++++++++++++++++

However, carefully note that on my native ZFS system, following:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Install_Arch_Linux_on_ZFS

you will first need to downgrade your kernel on that system to linux=6.9.7.arch1-1 (currently) so you can install required: zfs-linux for ZFS support and successful rebooting to occur!

That native ZFS system approach also is known to work, as I am currently writing to you from that rig!

Cheers

@DocMAX Can you provide more details? I'm able to build without errors.

Getting 6AD860EED4598027 unknown key error. gpg --recv-keys 6AD860EED4598027 did not help.

@mabod, Thank you! I've been seeing the same thing on my systems and am glad they've found a fix for it.

Since it's a very simple one, I've push an update to this package to backport the patch.

My bad I was replying to sphere101 about the kernel support and not to mabod about the configure.ac thing, I think I've created some confusion.

@eblau we are talking about a change to configure.ac, not a 6.9 support (which is clearly not there and it makes sense it's only available in VCS package).

@thaewrapt https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_Linux

Arch Linux defines simplicity as without unnecessary additions or modifications. It ships software as released by the original developers (upstream) with minimal distribution-specific (downstream) changes: patches not accepted by upstream are avoided, and Arch's downstream patches consist almost entirely of backported bug fixes that are obsoleted by the project's next release.

Adding support for a newer kernel release than the upstream ZFS release is not a "bug fix".

thaewrapt commented on 2024-07-10 14:44 (UTC)

@yurikoles can you point out where in the package guidelines is that? Because this is an actual purpose of PKGBUILD scripts, to have and apply patches that are needed but still not available upstream.

darkbasic commented on 2024-07-10 14:39 (UTC)

@mabod zfs-dkms-staging-git follows latest stable branch and has support for latest kernel plus backported fixes for new kernels (like the zvol issue with 6.9).

yurikoles commented on 2024-07-10 14:37 (UTC)

@mabod

The Arch Linux way is to keep packages as close to vanilla state as possible. So the best option here is to wait for the next release with that fix. Or we may end up backporting half of the next release commits.
