Comments on 'Mitigate and prevent GPGME error when syncing

Works perfect! Thanks for this solution.

Should we change SigLevel config back to original, after completing the update?

Best,

I just had trouble updating dropbox where reversing the changes made to /etc/pacman.conf fixed it. So for some cases it might be helpful to “switch back”.

This topic is pacman related not custom packages.

Custom package build from AUR and their package signature and keys are handled manually.

That didnt really help, maybe thats not the problem after all. Thank you.

drwx------ 1 alpm alpm        0 26. Nov 20:31 download-t6hQ3O

(wherever this did come from) :footprints:

cat /etc/pacman.conf | grep alpm
