signature error

trying to downgrade a package from the arch linux archive but i keep getting a signature error.  wiki says the sig file should be pulled down automatically with pacman -U.

i got around it by adding SigLevel = Optional TrustAll to my pacman.conf file. but that doesnt seem like the right way to do it.

Re: signature error

It is irrelevant. If you want help, post the full error messages or logs so that we can judge for ourselves what the appropriate course of action is.

Re: signature error

Opinions are like assholes.  Wait, no ... I'm not an opinion.

Post actual commands and output.  We can't possibly help until you do.
