I currently have Manjaro Budgie 18.0.4 installed. I wished to update it to the latest version, but after I have rooted the terminal and typed “sudo pacman -Syyu”, multiple errors occurred.

After I disregard the error and try to continue the installation and it installs the needed packages to proceed with the version upgrade, this comes up:

try this: sudo pacman -Syy sudo pacman-key --refresh-keys sudo pacman-key --populate archlinux manjaro sudo pacman -Syyu
it could take some time to refresh keys… and ignore the gpg errors during refreshing
[ira ira]# sudo pacman-key --refresh-keys
gpg: refreshing 129 keys from hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net
gpg: keyserver refresh failed: Server indicated a failure
==> ERROR: A specified local key could not be updated from a keyserver.
[ira ira]# sudo pacman-key --refresh-keys -u --keyserver hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.ne t
gpg: refreshing 129 keys from hkp://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net

it asks me to update the whole system before getting to that command, so its basically “pacman -Syyu”, should i proceed with it and see if the error still occurs?
