Hi,

I am setting up a mail server and while trying to install the spamassassin package I encountered the following error:

$ sudo pacman -S spamassassin

I tried to follow the instructions here in order to refresh the pacman keys.

I am also able to install other packages without problem. Any ideas of what might be wrong? I begin to suspect that something in the repositories is broken.

Thanks.

The advice in that thread is a bit overkill -- you shouldn't need to run pacman-key --init unless there's something very wrong with your pacman-key (e.g. damaged due to filesystem corruption).

Have you made sure your system time is correct?

Mod note: Moving to pacman issues.

The time is correct.

This is a VM and it pulls the time from the hypervisor which pulls the time from public NTPs.

At this moment I thought of installing the ntp package just to be sure. But I am even unable to do that too. I tried adjusting the settings in `/etc/pacman.conf`, `SigLevel = TrustAll` but it still gives the same error.

Any sugestions?

The problem was that the previous day I commented out some of the pacman repos in /etc/pacman.conf as I thought that that will speed up the updates and installations.

Not a good idea...
