Hi all

On my Thinkpad laptop, I haven't updated my packages in a while and now when I run sudo pacman -Syu I get the following, so I'm stuck where none of my packages update. How can I overcome this?

Thank you very much @static harbor, that seems to have fixed it! What does pacman -S archlinux-keyring do exactly?

Ask Ubuntu

What does a Keyring do?

I know how to disable it, circumvent it, and that it saves stuff. However, when asked "what is it for, why is it there, and how does it work" I'm at a loss for words. What's more disturbing is there

That's what I meant 😄 hehe thanks ❤️
