Re: Pacman Key Error

Are you using pacman 4?

Edit: Yeah, you're using [testing].
Please read the wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman-key

Run 'pacman-key --init' and edit /etc/pacman.conf and set up SigLevel = Optional TrustAll.

Re: Pacman Key Error

mod action: Moving from Pacman & Package Upgrade Issues to [testing] Repo Forum as this issue concerns pacman 4 which is still in testing.
