[LinuxBIOS] arch hell

[Ronald G. Minnich]

I can't get anywhere with arch. No matter what I do I get this:

rminnich@enigma:~/src/bios/freebios2> tla commit
M  src/mainboard/via/epia/Options.lb
arch_commit: unable to acquire revision lock (internal error in 
archive-pfs.c(pfs_lock_revision))
    tree: /home/rminnich/src/bios/freebios2
    revision: 
[e-mail]--devel/freebios--devel--2.0--patch-14
rminnich@enigma:~/src/bios/freebios2>

any hints?

I'm trying to checkout the tree so I can add in my 440bx mods and I get

gpg: Can't check signature: public key not found

And then

INVALID SIGNATURE ON REVISION
   archive: [e-mail]--devel
   revision: freebios-devel-2.0--patch-14
   checksum file: checksum

Go reimport the gpg keys. Ron's key was missing in the key list.

If you enable signature checking, you need to have the most recent key
file imported. It basically was a race condition, Richard didn't have
your new gpg key imported yet.

I suspected that something like this was the case but I could not find
a verbosity option that would tell me what key is was trying to find. 
Adding -vv to gpg added loads of output but none of it was very
helpful.

How did you discover it was Rons key that was missing?
