Corrupted hwinfo, can't update

General system Pacman & AUR helpers

Hi everyone,

I just got back from nit using this computer for two weeks and just got this error message while trying to update:

Preformatted texterror: hwinfo: signature from “Alexander F. Rødseth xyproto@archlinux.org” is marginal trust
:: File /var/cache/pacman/pkg/hwinfo-22.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst is corrupted (invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature)).Preformatted text

It won’t let me delete it nor can I update. I’m not sure what to do next.

Thanks for any suggestions

Bingo. So that I don’t die stupid, or halfway, ```
-Sy archlinux-keyring

So far so good. A reboot and I’m back. Thanks friend!
