Hi all, so I’ve disabled my read only file system, initialized the pacman keyring, populated the keyring, and even refreshed the keys (which took nearly half an hour). However, whenever I attempt to download anything from the arch repository USING pacman, it still appears as if the keys on the keyring are invalid or corrupted. I was using gimp as a test download, and nothing I have tried for the past few days has worked. Does anyone have any advice on how to address this issue? Would it be recommended to just download a new OS to dual boot into?
Are you able to “sudo pacman -Syyu”? I get errored out trying to do anything to pacman (pacman-key still works though)
Hmm, did you start fresh by removing the prior keys and pacman-keys --init again? (per Arch wiki)
I had likely only used -S for installing what I wanted which worked fine.
(Prior to that I had disabled sig requirements in pacman’s config, but don’t recommend doing that for obvious reasons.)
