[SOLVED] libssh key is unknown

chrisdb · 2019-10-28 19:09:04

During my system upgrade today (it was about a week ago I performed my last upgrade) I got the question to import PGP key of 'Christian Hesse' and I answered 'y'
Then afterwards I got the following error message:

error: libssh: key "..." is unknown
File /var/cache/pacman/pkg/libssh-0.9.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz is corrupted (invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

immediately after, I re-upgraded the system and everything went fine...

Is there a way to check if the libssh package is correctly upgraded?

thx

You can make sure that a package was installed after passing a signature check by running

$ pacman -Qi libssh

If "Signature" is listed in the "Validated By" list, then the package installed was signed by a trusted key.

To check the integrity of the installed package, you can run

$ pacman -Qkk libssh

Ok, thx.

Do you know the reason why I got this message?

Possibly your system time was off?

Indeed, that was the problem
The 27th of October the 'Daylight Saving Time' ended and we switched to 'Winter time'
