PGP key question while update pacman [Solved]

I get the following question when I try to update with pacman:
:: Import PGP key 4096R/ECCAC84C1BA08A6CC8E63FBBF22FB1D78A77AEAB, "Giancarlo Razzolini (grazzolini) <grazzolini@archlinux.org>", created: 2016-11-11? [Y/n]

What is PGP key? What would be the appropriate answer?

Hi ghar, welcome to the forums. You should familiarize yourself with the Arch Wiki, it's often the best way to understand Arch problems and how to solve them:

That key should be in the latest version of archlinux-keyring, so if you didn't have it you might want to check what happened...
