Re: [Bug: 21.5-b11] Cannot update packages because of GPG problem

You could M-x customize-variable RET package-get-require-signed-base-updates RET and set it to nil I see what the problem is: Shouldn't this variable have and autoload cookie? (defcustom package-get-require-signed-base-updates nil "*If set to a non-nil value, require explicit user confirmation for updates to the package-get database which cannot have their signature verified via PGP. When nil, updates which are not PGP signed are allowed without confirmation." :type 'boolean :group 'package-get) For now robert, evaluate (require 'package-get) before customizing the variable. <285 lines deleted by Adrian Aichner> -- Adrian Aichner mailto:adrian＠xemacs.org http://www.xemacs.org/
