[SOLVED]Lightdm-slick-greeter invalid or corrupted package

Good evening,
I wanted to install the lightdm-slick-greeter package but the process fails; it seems the package is invalid or corrupted (something related to the PGP signature);
I cheked the last update and signature date of this package and both are 18 days ago.
Any idea what's wrong with that?
Any workaround to install the lightdm slick greeter?
Pietro

i got this (I translate from italian, it means "not writable" and "expired").

 pacman-key --list-keys alex19EP
gpg: Nota: trustdb non scrivibile
pub   rsa4096 2020-03-04 [SC] [scaduto: 2022-01-20]

Be patient with me, I consider myself still a newbie.

Don't conduct partial updates.
Run

sudo pacman -Syu
LC_ALL=C pacman-key --list-keys alex19EP

should then have the key good until 2023 and you be able to install the greeter.

What version of archlinux-keyring do you have?

Then that key should not be expired, it was updated/extended on the 11th.

Did you just install this system? pacstrap copies the keyring from the host, and the installation order could potentially not update it.

SOLVED.
I just reinstalled the archlinux-keyring package and than I was allowed to install the lightdm-slick;
Btw, for me it's still a mistery why I couldn't do it before as long as the archlinux-keyring was up to date yet.
