Arch key could not be imported

Got this error

# pacman -S <package>
:: Import PGP key 45B429A8F9D9D22A, "Daurnimator <daurnimator@archlinux.org>"? [Y/n]
error: key "45B429A8F9D9D22A" could not be imported
error: required key missing from keyring
error: failed to commit transaction (unexpected error)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

So, I created backup of the old gnupg direcotry and moved it out of the way:

[root@quanah ~]# mv /etc/pacman.d/gnupg /etc/pacman.d/$(date --iso)-gnupg

[root@quanah ~]# pacman-key --init
gpg: checking the trustdb
gpg: [don't know]: invalid packet (ctb=00)

Found later out that resetting the keys was documented on the Arch wiki.
