I am not able to upgrade my Manjaro KDE Plasma System. Here is the error I am getting the following error. Even upgrading from Add/Remove Software is providing the same error.

Hi,

Do it first:

sudo pacman -Syy

Wait to finish and tell if errors still occur

I tried it. The process completed successfully. But, pacman -Syu is still not upgrading. I am getting the same error.

[amartyasinha918@amartya-hp ~]$ sudo pacman -Syy
[sudo] password for amartyasinha918:

multilib 180.5 KiB 0.00 B/s 00:00 [############################] 100%

After that, I’m running sudo pacman -Syu. It is giving the same error that I have mentioned in the main topic

Hi, I found the same issue with the signature for mesa when I updated the other day. I tried deleting, reinstalling and refreshing all my keys to no avail, so I guess there is an issue with the signature upstream. One option is to just ignore updating mesa for the time being; I decided to download the mesa package from the Arch mirror and install manually with pacman. The steps I took for this:

  1. Download from Arch mesa package (link that says download from mirror)
  2. Copy package to /var/cache/pacman/pkg
  3. Install package with sudo pacman -U /path/to/filename

Okay, do it like this:

sudo rm -Rf /var/cache/pacman/pkg/mesa-21.0.3-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

Later:

sudo pacman -Syyu

T+ = See you later

Unfortunately, it also didn;t work. Btw, the above solution worked for me. I have marked that answer as solution.

Curious, but the important thing is that he managed to solve it.

I use manjaro LXQt and manjaro KDE and in none have I had this problem

Glad to hear that!

However, this issue should still get fixed for the not so tech savy manjaro users.
Most likely the GPG key of Laurent Carlier lordheavym@gmail.com expired.

@codesardine @eugen-b

Any chance this gets fixed?
Should we file a bug report?

I contacted Laurent Carlier, his GPG key is still valid.
