“Error: multilib.db: GPGME error: No data” when trying to run pacman -Syyu
I’ve run through all the steps I could find on this site. [I tried to link the 2 posts I read but your topic creator will not allow me to post links. I was going to post them here]
Nothing works. Last week my updates were fine. This week I’m getting the above mentioned error. Anyone have anything I can try besides re-installing?

How would I change the mirror…or is there something else to mitigate the above error?
Thanks for your help, btw!
