I had installed gnome but now I want to switch to kde but I get polkit-qt5: signature from "Andrea Scarpino (Arch Linux) <andrea@archlinux.org>" is invalid
:: File /var/cache/pacman/pkg/polkit-qt5-0.103.0.bac771e-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz is corrupted (invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature)).
Do you want to delete it? [Y/n
How I can get this fixed ? I guess I i can use ignore in pacman.conf
Update I went to delete kde packages and all of them have an error
error: missing package metadata in

Yes but the issue is that there is missing package metadata which is a root cause of the issue. I tried to install blender and I got this with pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/boost-libs-1.55.0-6-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz error: missing package metadata in

Have you tried searching the forum for this error message?
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=141871
Do you get this error with many non-kde packages?
Offline
I did search first and goggled error first. I seen that post and had removed all packages. What is strange is that my other arch linux has boost-libs-1.55.0-6-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz on that installed just fine with pacman -U boost-libs-1.55.0-6-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz bu not the one from internet. I wonder if arch linux got hacked or what is going.

What error you're getting when you updated your system and tried to install boost-libs?

missing package metadata in boost-libs-1.55.0-6-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz when I tried to install blender with pacman -S blender. kde packages also state no metadata.
It strange that i was able to copy over boost-libs-1.55.0-6-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz from different system and I was able to install it by typing pacman -U boost-libs-1.55.0-6-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
The package that pacman downloaded from interent would not install with pacman -U it complained about missing metadata

There is a new blender package, did you try installing version 14:2.71-1?
