SigLevel = Required DatabaseOptional LocalFileSigLevel = Optional Were preventing the build from seeing the local repository files, because of the lack of a key on a ring provided by the packages. So to make the build use the files I had just built, I had to add an option to my local repository definition: [local] SigLevel = Never Server = file:///repo Now building can resume in a somewhat normal manner - I hope...
