Unknown key 'makepkgopt' in package description

[sandroXP2022]

Type: Discussion

I would like to configure the BlackArch repositories on my computer (ArtixLinux), however, whenever I try to install a package from this repository, it always gives the error "unknown key 'makepkgopt' in package description"...

I already tried to configure it in ArchLinux a few weeks ago and it gave the same error, even the Blackarch installation ISO (full) returns the error...

I need help...

Check GPG keys:

sudo pacman-key --refresh-keys

or

rm -rf /etc/pacman.d/gnupg
pacman-key --init
pacman-key --populate archlinux blackarch
pacman-key --update --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com

if you're missing a BlackArch key:

echo "F9A6E68A711354D84A9B91637533BAFE69A25079:4:" >> /usr/share/pacman/keyrings/blackarch-trusted
pacman-key --populate
pacman -Syu

I know a lot of people using ChachyOS or Chaotic-AUR tends to get issues like this.. if your system is backed up or a VM and willing to try something more advanced:

sudo find /var/lib/pacman/local/ -type f -name "desc" -exec sed -i '/^makepkgopt/d' {} +

or you can disable signatures temporarily to update your system or install what you need:

sudo sed -i '/^\[blackarch\]/,/^$/s/^SigLevel.*$/SigLevel = Never/' /etc/pacman.conf

None of this seems to work, "makepkgopt" does not occur in any of the files inside /var/lib/pacman/ or /etc.

When I try to install blackarch-wireless on-top of a fairly recent Arch installation.

This seems to happen when installing from meta-packages, installing packages manually works as intended!
