Manjaro.gpg broken?

Hello!

My manjaro.gpg key seems to be broken and I can’t use pacman any more.
When I try pacman -Syu i get Fehler: GPGME error: Keine Daten.

With googleing I found this solution (why can’t I post links? It is here in the forum with the tpoic “error: GPGME error: No data” when I’m trying to update"), which worked until step 5 - using the old pacman.conf again.

I compared my original pacman.conf and the newly made version. The differ in the handing of the security keys. My uses it (as I think, it is supposed to do) and the other one doesn’t (which I think is OK for repairing purpuses but not for general use). During the repairing process I get the error gpg: error reading key: Kein öffentlicher Schlüssel

Am I right with my assumption, that something is wrong with my security keys and how do I fix the problem?

This is my original pacman.conf

# By default, pacman accepts packages signed by keys that its local keyring
# trusts (see pacman-key and its man page), as well as unsigned packages.
SigLevel    = Required DatabaseOptional
LocalFileSigLevel = Optional
#RemoteFileSigLevel = Required

# NOTE: You must run `pacman-key --init` before first using pacman; the local
# keyring can then be populated with the keys of all official Manjaro Linux
# packagers with `pacman-key --populate archlinux manjaro`.

#
# REPOSITORIES
#   - can be defined here or included from another file
#   - pacman will search repositories in the order defined here
#   - local/custom mirrors can be added here or in separate files
#   - repositories listed first will take precedence when packages
#     have identical names, regardless of version number
#   - URLs will have $repo replaced by the name of the current repo
#   - URLs will have $arch replaced by the name of the architecture
#
# Repository entries are of the format:
#       [repo-name]
#       Server = ServerName
#       Include = IncludePath
#
# The header [repo-name] is crucial - it must be present and
# uncommented to enable the repo.
#

# The testing repositories are disabled by default. To enable, uncomment the
# repo name header and Include lines. You can add preferred servers immediately
# after the header, and they will be used before the default mirrors.

Do you need any more information?
