[arch-general] Resetting pacman-key Still Asks to Import.
Hi, I have an Arch Linux laptop that hasn't been updated in a long time, mainly because it started to lock-up after a few minutes uptime, requiring a power cycle. I'm now trying to update all its packages in the hope the lock-ups have gone, and if not to have a more modern base for diagnosis. A ‘pacman -Syuw’ took a few goes but signature checking had problems, as did trying to update signatures. I resorted to https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman/Package_signing#Resetting_all_th... that appeared to succeed. The next attempt at ‘pacman -Syuw’ gets to Total Download Size: 0.00 MiB :: Proceed with download?

The keys that are invalid are probably keys that are not in your archlinux-keyring. I suggest you use https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Linux_Archive to update in several steps instead of a big one. Lone

If the system is not too old just updating the package archlinux-keyring may bring you back into business. -- main(a){char*c=/* Schoene Gruesse */"B?IJj;MEH" "CX:;",b;for(a/* Best regards my address: */=0;b=c[a++];) putchar(b-1/(/* Chris cc -ox -xc - && ./x */b/42*2-3)*42);}
