pacman -Syu error: failed to commit transaction (PGP signature)

I'm trying to update my system on my laptop. I haven't touched my laptop over the summer, so there is 2-3 months since last time I updated.
When I now try to update I'm getting this error: failed to commit transaction (invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature))

...

Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

The amount of error: signature from X is unknown trust stretches beyond the lines I have in my terminal.


I tried to google this issue myself and I found that many people solved this problem by running sudo pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring && sudo pacman -Su. However this for me gives me this problem;

sudo pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring && sudo pacman -Su

I also found that system time could perhaps be an issue, but for my that is correct.
Since none of the proposed solutions I have found doesn't work, I'm not really sure how to fix this problem.
How can I fix this problem so I can update my system?

Re: pacman -Syu error: failed to commit transaction (PGP signature)

What is the output of:

$ pacman-key --list-sigs '<eworm@archlinux.org>'

Re: pacman -Syu error: failed to commit transaction (PGP signature)

Try fetching the key via WKD to pick up the missing signatures:

# gpg --homedir /etc/pacman.d/gnupg/ --auto-key-locate 'clear,nodefault,wkd' -v --locate-external-key 'eworm@archlinux.org'

https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/76580 ?

Resetting the keyring is generally the fix. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Pacman … l_the_keys

Re: pacman -Syu error: failed to commit transaction (PGP signature)

Thanks for the help! I did;

# mv /etc/pacman.d/gnupg /tmp/gnupg
# pacman-key --init
# pacman-key --populate
# pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring
# pacman -Syu

This fixed the issue big_smile
