“Invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature)”

Got the message " Cannot commit transaction."

“Invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature)”

Ran the following:
pacman-key --init
pacman-key --populate archlinux manjaro
pacman-key --refresh-keys

Got this error: gpg: error reading key: No public key

Thank you.

It may be helpful if you provide the names of the package and the associated key.

Thank you. Is there someplace in the system where that information is logged in an update logging file? Have no idea what package or what key.

You can look through the pacman log. Using the less pager, in reverse chronological order:

tac /var/log/pacman.log | less

It might not have recorded all of the errors, but you may be able to determine which specific package is causing the issue.

Thanks. Need to streamline my programs so there isn’t GB of updates of things that aren’t necessary for my usage which is basically Office Libre and a few other things. Would like to have a very basic install so the updates aren’t everything in space and time.

Thank you.
