Unable to setup tor on arch linux


I tried to install tor-browser-en package on arch linux using the yaourt by typing the command yaourt tor-browser-en . But while installing I get the error as

=> Validating source files with md5sums...
    cower-12.tar.gz ... Passed
    cower-12.tar.gz.sig ... Skipped
==> Verifying source file signatures with gpg...
    cower-12.tar.gz ... FAILED (unknown public key 1EB2638FF56C0C53)
==> ERROR: One or more PGP signatures could not be verified!

I cannot install it, help!a


Solution

  • If you had visited the arch linux user repository page for tor-browser-en here and read the comment section. You would have seen that you should manually add the public key by typing in

    gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys D1483FA6C3C07136
    

    Do this and it should work fine.
