Hello guys! I have done a fresh install of Arch Linux with KDE. The first thing to do was downloading Librewolf but there is an issue. I used an installation way that is without an AUR helper. And the package named librewolf-bin. System updated, git command executed, changed directory to librewolf-bin, executed the makepkg -si. But it couldn't verify PGP signatures.

+Visited the AUR site of Arch about librewolf-bin. Executed commands that pinned user recommended. But there is another error.

Used commands

gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com --search-keys 031F7104E932F7BD7416E7F6D2845E1305D6E801

gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com --search-keys 662E3CDD6FE329002D0CA5BB40339DD82B12EF16

The error for both commands

gpg: error searching keyserver: Connection closed in DNS

gpg: keyserver search failed: Connection closed in DNS

Do I have anything to do with my ISP? Or only local problem?

You can go to https://keyserver.ubuntu.com in your browser and then use the Search key option and then download the public key (pub entry). Then use gpg --import 0000000000111111112222222222222.asc where 0000000000111111112222222222222.asc is the name of the downloaded public key file.

Oh, thank you. First key didn't work but the second did. That helped me very much. Thanks for help again, goodbye.
