Raghavendra thanks for the pointer. The
discussion thread helped.
Here are the steps that worked.
step 1
----
$ sudo pacman-key --refresh-keys
step 2
----
$ cat log.keys |grep alad
gpg: key 6BC26A17B9B7018A: "Alad Wenter <[email protected]>" 1 new user ID
gpg: key 6BC26A17B9B7018A: "Alad Wenter <[email protected]>" 8 new signatures
gpg: key 6BC26A17B9B7018A: "Alad Wenter <[email protected]>" 1 signature
cleaned
step 3
----
$ pacman-key --list-keys alad
