Evening all.
I'm running Archlinux on a Shuttle box (XS35V2) with a Corsair SSD (V4-CT032V4SSD2). I recently encountered a massive number of file system errors, but after cleaning up with fsck.ext4 all the errors were resolved. This left a few corrupt packages, but pacman managed to reinstall them.
However, it seems that "gpgme" was another affected package and I'm now unable to upgrade the system:

Some packages, however, upgrade ok (I just upgrade libpcap, for example).
I have absolutely no idea where to go with this, beyond re-installing the whole OS, as gpgme seems to be used by pacman to upgrade it. Can anyone suggest anything?

Just a quick update. I've tried
pacman -Syu
pacman -Suu
pacman -R gpgme
pacman-key --init
arch-chroot & all of the above
pacman -S openssl libarchive pacman (works ok)
fsck
...all without success. I'm unable to remove this package as it's a pacman dependency, but I can't update it. I feel the arch-chroot direction is the right way, I just have no idea what to do.

the error could be due to a corrupt package, try deleting gpgme from /var/cache/pacman/pkg so it needs to be re-downloaded.
I assume when you tried the chroot, you had booted from a live cd/usb ?

no luck I'm afraid. The package re-downloaded ok, but still fails.

Yes, I chroot'd from the latest Arch live usb.

I get the feeling the problem is not with gpgme itself, only detected there.
A search for malloc(): memory corruption gives a lot of results that mention glibc .
check if that package is correct.

glibc updated successfully, but issues still present.
However, something prompted me to have another look at pacman-key tool, which I have run previously and never spotted the error Error in `gpg': free(): invalid next size (fast): 0x000000000097db50 and /usr/bin/pacman-key: line 377: 3334 Aborted (core dumped) "${GPG_PACMAN[@]}" --import "${KEYRING_IMPORT_DIR}/${keyring}.gpg"...

Tried moving /etc/pacman.d/gnupg and re-initialising pacman-key but it contains an error:
[root@shuttlepc ~]# haveged -w 1024
[root@shuttlepc ~]# pacman-key --init
gpg: Generating pacman keychain master key...
gpg: -:2: invalid algorithm
gpg: Done

...so I restored the original directory. Re-running is successful.
Then I checked dependencies for pacman and wondered about archlinux-keyring, so tried to re-install that which results in the following error (extracted):
...
*** Error in `gpg: DSA key 00F0D0F0 requires a 256 bit or larger hash
usr/bin/pacman-key: line 377: 3492 Aborted (core dumped) "${GPG_PACMAN[@]}" --import "${KEYRING_IMPORT_DIR}/${keyring}.gpg"
...
Also tried changing the keyserver in gpg.conf to hkp://pgp.mit.edu:11371 and re-running the pacman-key commands, but that has no effect.

Tried removing signiture requirements from pacman.conf. No change. Tried all manner of things to regenerate keys. No joy.
Have now reformatted disk and currently re-installing OS. Slightly disappointed I couldn't crack it, and if anyone knows how to solve this issue and stumbles across this thread, please let me know how I could have solved it!
Cheers to Lone_Wolf for the suggestions.
