Hello,
What keyserver do you use?
It seems pacman is trying to refresh the gpg keys from whatever keyserver you use, but it is failing as it cannot connect to the keyserver.
Maybe try a different keyserver and see if it can then fetch the new keys?
Good luck, Polarian
Tried both the default in /etc/pacman.d/gnupg/gpg.conf: keyserver hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net and, per the arch wiki keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com both were having problems at the time. I was worried the entire keyserver infrastructure was gone/deprecated after the 2018 meltdown of most of the gpg keyservers with the attack that added thousands of signatures per-key that basically broke everything (web of trust, verses first-seen). Currently I have keyserver.ubuntu.com active and will keep an eye on it. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
