Gradle task

./gradlew --write-verification-metadata pgp,sha256 --export-keys

did not find a pgp public key in a remote repository or the artifact is not signed.

      <component group="org.burnoutcrew.composereorderable" name="reorderable" version="0.9.6">
         <artifact name="reorderable-0.9.6.module">

A fix is to:

  1. Start signing all artifacts, if not signed yet
  2. Upload a public pgp key used for signing artifacts to multiple public pgp repositories: https://keys.openpgp.org | https://pgp.mit.edu | https://keyserver.ubuntu.com/
