failure migration repository

Hello all!

I tried to migrate from current archlinux official repo following the transition process as described here: https://archlinux32.org/download/
However, I can't downgrade my packages and I get this error

:: Il file /var/cache/pacman/pkg/xorg-server-common-1.19.3-2-i686.pkg.tar.xz è corrotto (il pacchetto non è valido oppure è corrotto (firma PGP)).
Vuoi eliminarlo? [S/n] n
errore: xorg-server: signature from "Erich Eckner (just to sign arch packages) <arch@eckner.net>" is invalid
:: Il file /var/cache/pacman/pkg/xorg-server-1.19.3-2-i686.pkg.tar.xz è corrotto (il pacchetto non è valido oppure è corrotto (firma PGP)).
Vuoi eliminarlo? [S/n] n
errore: impossibile eseguire l'operazione richiesta (il pacchetto non è valido oppure è corrotto (firma PGP))
Si sono verificati degli errori, nessun pacchetto è stato aggiornato.

It's not english but it first asks me to delete all packages that should downgrade and then it says "there have been errors, no package is updated".
DId i do something wrong?

Re: failure migration repository

ah, my bad:
It tries to install the files from your cache - which do not match to my signature in the database.

Running

pacman -Sc

before the upgrade should fix that.

Or as a less invasive workaround: simply answer "Y" ("S" in italian) to the questions provided by pacman about the signature mismatch.
