Hi, Ray.
I would like to say that the creation of the directory was originally
a feature of pacman-key. But Allan suggested to move the
responsibility to the makefile of pacman, so the keyring would be
created empty by the build system. It is yet a TODO item, indeed. So,
it's the distribution duty to package it the way it fits better for
them.
By the other hand, I was thinking about that while writing this
message, and I think that you are right. pacman-key should generate an
empty keyring if there is not one. If we leave to a package, it could
bet messy if the user tries to reinstall the package or if there is an
update for it. It would generate unnecessary .pacnew files for each
one in the keyring. pacman-key already has a feature to add and remove
keys from keyrings made specifically for that purpose.
I agree. I still think these folder should be created by "make
install" but it makes sense for pacman-key to create the folder if it
does not exist.
My pacman-git PKGBUILD has this in it....
install -dm700 $pkgdir/etc/pacman.d/gnupg
touch $pkgdir/etc/pacman.d/gnupg/{sec,pub}ring.gpg
chmod 600 $pkgdir/etc/pacman.d/gnupg/{sec,pub}ring.gpg
Does not having those keyring files also cause issues here and need to
be addressed? Or have I just been over cautious in packaging there?
