Archlinux-keyring hangs shutdown for a minute

I updated the system (including archlinux-keyring), prepared to power off (including turning off the tethered network, hope that's not a problem), and then issued the `poweroff` command. Then, however, the shutdown hanged for a minute while waiting for something archlinux-keyring related to happen.

These seem to be the relevant journal contents

Seems to be something GPG-related. Any tips for preventing this from happening again?

Re: Archlinux-keyring hangs shutdown for a minute

it should not happen overly frequent and likely coincided with you disabling the network in the middle of it's operation. You could either adjust the timer to run at more reasonable times for you, or disable it at chance of increasing package installation issues due to outdated keyrings.
