Hi @Fenris, I’m not sure why this has been happening to some folks. It’s kind of a weird one, maybe geography plays a role but in any case we haven’t quite figured it out.
In the meantime, you could give this workaround a try:
It essentially involves re-doing these steps for setting up the Chaotic repo:
sudo pacman-key --recv-key 3056513887B78AEB --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com
sudo pacman-key --lsign-key 3056513887B78AEB
sudo pacman -U 'https://cdn-mirror.chaotic.cx/chaotic-aur/chaotic-keyring.pkg.tar.zst'
sudo pacman -U 'https://cdn-mirror.chaotic.cx/chaotic-aur/chaotic-mirrorlist.pkg.tar.zst'
Then try taking the update again.
