When running sudo pacman -Syu I get:
error: failed retrieving file 'core.db' from ...
error: failed retrieving file 'extra.db' from ...
error: failed retrieving file 'community.db' from ...
replaced my mirror with ...
It asks me to replace kwrite with extra/kate. I don't know what this means. When I confirm, it asks me to choose from a list of dozens/hundreds of options. Not sure what they are.
edit: I chose "yes" to
replace kwrite with extra/kate
replace zeroconf-ioslave with extra/kio-zeroconf
no idea what any of these mean but I hope my system is okay...
what the hell
after installing I get an error:
error: linux: signature from details of signer is invalid
is corrupted
(PGP signature)
I ran sudo pacman -Syu again, download size is different but i'm downloading the same stuff
same error
error: failed to commit transaction (invalid or corrupted package)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

finite ocean
edit: I chose "yes" to
replace kwrite with extra/kate
replace zeroconf-ioslave...
sonic flame
is that supposed to happen
finite ocean
yea
sonic flame
I never changed anything personally
finite ocean
a bit ago pacman was also replacing pipewire-media-session with wireplumber
sonic flame
ok how do I update keyring
sonic flame
I just run -Syu again?
after doing that
also it says there are 126 providers available for tessdata
which one do I choose
are these countries?
same error
finite ocean
the fuck
sonic flame
I ran the same commands again and now it works
I have idea how anything works
fuck nvm
doesn't work
same error
it asks me to delete the corrupted signature
i chose both options, neither worked
finite ocean
I'm not familliar with tesseract
oh I see
it's probably because you have skanpage installed, an image scanner apart of kde-applications and kde-utilities
sonic flame
Nope
I never explicitly installed that software
if it's causing me issues how do I delete it and why is it causing me issues

file:///var/cache/pacman/pkg/linux-5.19.3.arch1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
seems to be tenderlicious' issue
it is being installed and then automatically marked as corrupted somehow

Are you using Kde?
Yes
I noticed skanpage and skanlite was in the download list, so maybe I do have that, but I didn't explicitly download that
sonic flame
still unresolved
sonic flame
Update: I deleted all files in my cache related to the latest update. Then I ran pacman-key --refresh-keys. Then I deleted my entire cache using -Scc. Then I ran an update using -Syu. I get the same error.
I'm thinking of switching to fedora now...
@finite oceanany ideas
finite ocean
have you ever used reflector to edit the mirrorlist?
might be worth setting a new mirrorlist
sonic flame
have you ever used reflector to edit the mirrorlist?
I already did, I removed a mirror and it worked.
Thank you for that.
This is now solved.
finite ocean
Nice
sonic flame
@finite oceanany idea why I was getting that error?
Like is changing mirrors a common fix for this issue
finite ocean
Usually it’s a bad keyring on the client
In this case the mirror had some issues
Can’t really say for sure what issues, but sometimes yea you need to mess with the mirrors since most of them are 3rd parties
sonic flame
okay

is it worth switching to a secure mirror, one that is not a third party?
I'd prefer getting updates from the source even if it takes longer
a mirror owned by arch
finite ocean
No they’re secure, hence the pgp sig
sonic flame
okay
