Anyone else got this? I hate the keyring system, nothing but trouble.
Ran every pacman-key command I could find, no luck.

??? Disable security or invent patience... Already waited a month for a certain PKG.
It's possible I screwed up. Somehow.

So... Tell me ppl; Anyone else having probs with pgp keys?
Thanks, b out.

--edit. Already checked websites. Arch n OB no news. Nothing on the forums. Must be missing something besides the holidays.
--edit. Marking as solved.
Yep. Ran rankmirrors, reinstalled xyz-keyring(s). Reinstalled everyting PGP related I could think of. Ran --refresh-keys about 8 times before it worked.
Something was broken, seems to be ok now.
Thanks for the shout, marking as solved.
Sometimes such errors may appear of your time/date is off by far. It appears as a security flaw and the server rejects the keys as the servers are time sensitive.

If you don't believe me just try it. Set ntpd (or whatever ntp service you use) off, adjust date/time (# date 121213452021.58) = dec 12 1:45pm 2021 58s) and run pacman -Suy, readjust time and rerun.
might also be worth noting that rankmirrors, while very useful for finding the fastest mirror, does nothing in regards whether that mirror is fully synced with the central repo.
see here: https://archlinux.org/mirrors/status/
"Completion %: The number of mirror checks that have successfully connected and disconnected from the given URL. If this is below 100%, the mirror may be unreliable."
which is what i meant by "laggy mirror"
