[SOLVED] libconfig (invalid or corrupted package)

I am installing Picom compositor but dependency libconfig has PGP signature problem.

sudo pacman -Sy picom
Packages (3) libconfig-1.7.3-2  libev-4.33-2  picom-10.2-1

-Sy is invoking a partial upgrade and not supported. Update your entire system: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/System … nsupported

Depending on when your last real update was, you might actually have to do

sudo pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring && pacman -Su picom

Thanks. I just found out that archlinux-keyring was outdated. I am testing an old Arch Linux live CD with combined Xfce and Fvwm.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/fvwm3- … nload-iso/

This solved the problem.
sudo pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring
