[SOLVED] Updating libgcrypt to libgcrypt 1.6.0-1 fails

I was away from my machine for a while and did a system upgrade this morning. A lot of packages, like I'd expect and then halfway through I started getting messages about libgcrypt and invalid GPG engines. Anyway, long story short, my system is crippled due to everything being up to date except libgcrypt which is version 1.5.3-1 and pacman refuses to update it due to GPG errors (go figure).
The deets are as follows:
When I try and run a bunch of commands on my computer, I get a libgcrypt error such as this one:
# sudo halt
halt: error while loading shared libraries: libgcrypt.so.20: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
When I try to (forcefully) upgrade libgcrypt, I get the following:
# sudo pacman -S --force libgcrypt 1
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
Packages (1): libgcrypt-1.6.0-1
Total Installed Size: 1.09 MiB
Net Upgrade Size: 0.38 MiB
:: Proceed with installation? [Y/n]
(1/1) checking keys in keyring [########################################################] 100%

error: libgcrypt: missing required signature
:: File /var/cache/pacman/pkg/libgcrypt-1.6.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz is corrupted (invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature)).
Do you want to delete it? [Y/n]
error: failed to commit transaction (invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature))
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
So, I'm not sure what's going on here, but it seems to me that libgcrypt needs to be upgraded for pacman to upgrade libgcrypt. Can someone please help?

Yes this works - though is this now also related to the kernel not booting after updating before libgcrypt was updated? Or is that a separate issue?
Should I be worried about booting my new kernel after the update?

  • Configurator is 'Unable to Update iOS". Error 11 (Preflight options copy fail)

    I'm attempting to restore 720 iPads to factory settings, and place a Configurator profile on them.
    I'm using a Bretford Cart that holds up to 30.
    Everytime I run configurator, it's unable to update iOS, and it specifically says that It "failed to copy preflight options during recovery mode restore. Error 11."
    Half of them work, and are done correctly, and the other half give the error.
    Some of the iPads are on iOS 5, I'm sure, considering the amount of iPads that I'm dealing with. Could this be the issue?
    What am I doing wrong?

    It's been a while, but I think I had to finally completely reset all of them to factory settings, and run them through the entire system again.
    It could be the cart (and configurator) having a problem applying settings to multiple OS installs. I'd put my money on this being the issue.

    Hey AndreaKK,
    I would try the following directions:

  • Update to 10.5.1.A.0.283 fails every time

    Update to 10.5.1.A.0.283 fails every time
    It is Xperia Tablet Z SGP321, no branding, no SIM lock.
    In the past only Sony original firmware were flashed.
    Currently 10.4.1.B.0.101 is inside.
    Update to 10.5.1.A.0.283 using PCC fails on every attempt.
    PCC was updated to latest available version.
    The whole progress looks like following
    - first PCC carries out the preparation stage
    - than PCC reports to carry out download
    - as soon as progress bar at approx. 50% of whole scale the preparation stage 
     is entered again
    - it takes very long time, between 5 and 10 minutes, till the progress bar reaches 
    nearly 100%
    - download procedure ends with following message
     error code 10, a hint to check firewall settings if PCC and Sony Update Engine
     are passed through, a hint to retry later
    - switch off firewall
    - switch off antivirus
    - disable all protection mechanism in Windows EMEA
    - uninstall PCC, reboot, install  PCC of current version again
    All the above measures do not help.
    One week ago the Sony Support claimed I should retry some time later.
    How long do I have to wait for retry? a week, a month, a year, 10 years, 20 years?
    It is a big effort to get this device close to the windows desktop device
    with PCC installed and running on it, to get connected this device with such windows desktop device,
    to invoke PCC and the update procedure. All this effort just to see in the end the update
    does still no succeed!!!!
    How long do I have to live with Xperia and obsolete Android on it?

    The point of trying a different computer is that it gives information. 
    If it works you know that your PC is the problem. 
    If not, you have to look further. 
    And finally - if nothing works  - you can try to flash it. 
    My Sony z is working like reborn after a clean install. 
    It takes some time to learn,  but after that it isn't that difficult. 
    My tablet works like before KitKat (sd-card) ,  but with the new functions. 
    No serious bugs whatsoever anymore.! 

  • Update for use RW2 in Elements12 en CS5 failed.

    update for use RW2 in Elements12 en CS5 failed.

    And exactly what? You have not provided any system info or other technical details like what camera you use that would necessitate an ACR update. For CS5 you can probably forget that, anyway, if your camera is super new. Raw support simply is version specific and the old ACR 6.7 may not cover your camera model at all.

    You would have to purchase a retail Leopard installer DVD. Since they are difficult to find you may need to search on eBay, Amazon.com, and Google to find a suitable copy.
    If you have an Intel iMac, then you may want to consider upgrading to Snow Leopard which you can purchase at any Apple retailer for $29.00 versus the minimum price of $129.00 for Leopard.
    Leopard System requirements
    You must have a Macintosh computer with:
    an Intel processor or a PowerPC G4 (867 MHz or faster) or G5 processor
    a DVD drive >built-in FireWire
    at least 512 MB of RAM (additional RAM is recommended for development purposes)
    a built-in display or a display connected to an Apple-supplied video card supported by your computer
    at least 9 GB of disk space available, or 12 GB of disk space if you install the developer tools
    Snow Leopard General requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel processor
    1GB of memory
    5GB of available disk space
    DVD drive for installation
    Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    And, you could also upgrade to Lion by purchasing the Apple USB Lion flash drive installer for $69.00.
    Lion System Requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory

    Everytime I try to update iTunes to 11.1.5 it keeps failing and telling my to go to the tool > download only (Which I can't find), so what canI do because it won't let me connect my iphone without itunes being updated.

    Hi marwoygoobs97,
