Pacman devs will correct me if I am wrong but pacman and/or pacman-key
will eventually automatically download and add to the keyring missing
keys that have signed packages which you are trying to install. (It
does not mean they will be trusted by default.)
In the meantime, I wrote this little script. (Do not run it blindly.)
# Fetch all keys that have signed packages in the repos and put them in
# some temporary keyring.
homedir=/var/tmp/keyring/
gpg="gpg
--no-permission-warning
--keyserver hkp://pgp.mit.edu
--homedir ${homedir}
"
mkdir -p "${homedir}"
for i in /var/lib/pacman/sync/*.db; do
tar xf "$i" -O
done \
| awk '/%PGPSIG%/ {getline;print}' \
| while read i; do
echo "${i}" \
| base64 -d \
| ${gpg} --verify - /dev/null 2>&1 \
| sed 's/.*key ID //;t;d'
done \
| sort -u \
| while read x; do
${gpg} --recv-key "${x}"
done
# That keyring can now be fed to pacman-key.
# In addition, if you want to trust everybody...
${gpg} --fingerprint \
| awk '/fingerprint/{print $4$5$6$7$8$9$10$11$12$13$14":6:"}' \
| ${gpg} --import-ownertrust
