SOLVED: arch upgrade error

[SeanK]

Hi All,

I have tried upgrading Arch and ran into this problem. I did trying restoring the system using Timeshift but the problem, oddly still remains. Any suggestions much appreciated.

SOLVED: Just needed to upgrade the key ring:

sudo pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring

That is why partial upgrades are not supported. Do not use:

• pacman -Sy [I]package[/I]
• pacman -Sy followed by pacman -S [I]package[/I] (Note the absence of -S[B]u[/B] in the installation of the package.)
• pacman -Syuw (Note that pacman -Syuw does imply the same risks like pacman -Sy, as it will update the pacman sync database without installing the newer packages.)

When refreshing the package database, always do a full upgrade with pacman -Syu. Note that if pacman -Syu does not perform the upgrade because of an error, the end result is the same as running pacman -Sy. Therefore, the error must be resolved and the upgrade operation completed as soon as possible.

I only ever use sudo pacman -Syu
