I seem to be the odd one out for this, I just installed ezarcher and I've tried everyone's suggestions. Not one of them worked for me. When I run ls - la or -ld it says that I'm the owner of /.gnupg. but when I try to run anything with sudo like pacman-key --init I get "gpg: WARNING: unsafe permissions on homedir '/root/.gnupg' ". I even did the gpgconf --kill all and gpgconf --kill dirmngr. I'm hope that someone e has come up with another option by now
Thank
