Try running this.
paru -S endeavouros-keyring archlinux-keyring

Then try updating with paru again?

pebcak · June 20, 2024, 7:38pm

Refresh your Arch’s mirrorlist to begin with:

reflector --latest 7 --sort rate --protocol https | sudo tee /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

The run

sudo rm -r /var/lib/pacman/sync/

and

sudo pacman -Syyu

and post the output of the latter.

mmtech · June 20, 2024, 7:39pm

after running that command got this:

See:

Cphusion · June 20, 2024, 7:43pm

Can you share the output of the following?
ls -l /var/lib/pacman/sync/endeavouros.db

mmtech · June 20, 2024, 7:44pm

Cphusion · June 20, 2024, 7:46pm

Try running the following.
sudo rm -f /var/lib/pacman/sync/endeavouros.db

Then run then try updating again with paru?

mmtech · June 20, 2024, 7:46pm

oh and I’m set SigLevel = Never temporary because I have signature error too

Don’t!

Restore its default value and follow the instructions in the link I posted in my previous post.

mmtech · June 20, 2024, 7:54pm

now Siglevel equal to Required
and follow that link:

I dont have Server = https://mirror.nimatarlani.com/endeavouros/repo/$repo/$arch so can’t remove it obviously
I run reflector command successfully

3.then sudo rm -r /var/lib/pacman/sync/

then sudo pacman -Syu and I got this:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Pacman#error:_GPGME_error:_No_data

Please follow the suggestions made in the link above.

You would also make sure to have a steady internet connection and up-to-date mirrorlists.

mmtech · June 21, 2024, 9:30am

Not worked. thank yall for your friendly helps. It means a lot for me.
BTW this problem solved by myself according to your info.
I’m edit /etc/pacman.d/endeavouros-mirrorlist and there is a server which pebcak mentioned in past topics which is cause problems Server = https://mirror.nimatarlani.com/endeavouros/repo/$repo/$arch the strange things is first time when I check endeavouros-mirrorlist it’s not there but after using two mirror refresher at EOS welcome app somehow appear there.
after removing that and set SigLevel = Required DatabaseOptional and

[endeavouros]

SigLevel = PackageRequired`

and sudo pacman -Syyu
problem solved.
thank you

Glad your up and running be sure to mark the thread as solved from which of @pebcaks post helped you get this issue resolved so if others have it they can quickly find the answers. Thank you and Happy Computing.

mmtech · June 21, 2024, 12:57pm

Is that possible to edit that wiki page of archwiki and add endeavouros-mirrorlist related commands?

Cphusion · June 21, 2024, 1:03pm

No because that is the Archwiki, not the EndeavourOS wiki.

mmtech · June 21, 2024, 1:05pm

I wish our EOS and every Arch-base linux had this Rich wiki!
