DetailsHello,
My pacman-key is failing since a month or something. Everytime when I try to refresh the keys via pacman-key --refresh-keys I get the following error: gpg: refreshing 88 keys from hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net gpg: keyserver refresh failed: No keyserver available ==> ERROR: A specified local key could not be updated from a keyserver. I get this error also with other keyservers like pgp.mit.edu. I have attached a `strace pacman-key --refresh-keys`. It's maybe helpful. Any idea how I can solve this issue?

rm -R /etc/pacman.d/gnupg/
rm -R /root/.gnupg/
gpg --refresh-keys
pacman-key --init && pacman-key --populate archlinux
pacman-key --refresh-keys
this works, except pacman-key --refresh-keys.. I still get the same error there.
my /etc/nsswitch.conf

How can I check for a running dirmgr? I can't find with `systemctl list-units -a ` nor with `systemctl list-unitfiles -a`.
dirmngr is run by gnupg the first time you run it if it's not already running.

pacman-key --refresh-keys does work now but at the end I get:
