]]>for me it worked the following command:
# sudo pacman -S archlinux-keyring && sudo pacman -Syu
this also worked for me
thanks a lot
# sudo pacman -S archlinux-keyring && sudo pacman -Syu
# dirmngr < /dev/null
# pacman-key --refresh-keys
# pacman -Syyu
And it worked fine. Thank you very much for your patients and guidance.
