Good afternoon,

I'm having an issue with pacman. When running pacman to e.g. do an
upgrade I get the following error message:
error: cifs-utils: signature from "Tobias Powalowski <tobias.powalowski at googlemail.com>" is unknown trust
:: File /var/cache/pacman/pkg/cifs-utils-6.11-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst is corrupted (invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature)).
Do you want to delete it? [Y/n] 

I checked system time which should be fine, so I did a
pacman-key --init
pacman-key --populate archlinux 
this ends with the following error:
==> ERROR: Trust database could not be updated.

What is it I'm missing?

THX Frank
