"pacman-key --init" does not work

When I try to run "pacman-key --init" I get next output:

gpg: checking the trustdb
gpg: keydb_search failed: Invalid packet
gpg: keydb_search failed: Invalid packet
gpg: keydb_search failed: Invalid packet
gpg: keydb_search failed: Invalid packet
gpg: keyring_get_keyblock: read error: Invalid packet
gpg: keyring_get_keyblock failed: Invalid keyring
gpg: failed to rebuild keyring cache: Invalid keyring
gpg: marginals needed: 3  completes needed: 1  trust model: pgp
gpg: keyring_get_keyblock: read error: Invalid packet
gpg: keydb_get_keyblock failed: Invalid keyring
gpg: validate_key_list failed
gpg: keyring_get_keyblock: read error: Invalid packet
gpg: keydb_get_keyblock failed: Invalid keyring

How to fix this?
