Re^2: CPAN Installs Failing On gpg

I forgot to add to my original post that I had tried to manually run the command. This is what happened:

/opt/freeware/bin/gpg --verify --batch --no-tty /usr/local/src/perl/.c
+pan/sources/authors/id/S/ST/STRO/CHECKSUMS
gpg: Signature made Sat Oct 29 02:53:44 2022 EDT
gpg:                using RSA key E247329948EA8380
gpg: Can't check signature: No public key
[download]

Google searches returned some very old information about gpg not being able to connect to a public key store that would have the key the command is looking for. However, I don't know how valid that is any more.

I was running CPAN v2.20 before it suggested that I install the latest version v2.38.

That particular key is mentioned in the "bug report" here. You could follow the instructions in there to proceed. It's also worth reading the background to all the changes in 2.29. I take it that your previous CPAN version was older than this. The current PAUSE public key is always available at https://pause.perl.org/pause/query?ACTION=pause_04about#pubkeybat if required. 🦛	[reply]

Thanks! Loading the public keys from the Web site you listed did the job.	[reply]
