Refresh your mirrorlist and then -Syyu - the mirror you are syncing to is outdated. – jasonwryan Dec 1 '12 at 7:02

Always start your installation with -Syu, in this case, you probably used an old arch-keyring package.

Just do pacman -Syu archlinux-keyring first, and try the installation of libproxy afterwards

Anyway a quick dirty hack is put a line SigLevel = Never in /etc/pacman.conf (under the [options] label, or modify existing one) to bypass this restriction temporarily.

still failed . Is that "install with -Syu " not means "upgrade the whole system "? I just wanna install single package . – cdh Dec 1 '12 at 3:55
@cdh try the dirty hack then, and remove that afterwards; and -Syu means upgrade whole system yes, but in this case, it means upgrade whole system while install the desired package – warl0ck Dec 1 '12 at 3:57
Added SigLevel = Never ,still not worked . – cdh Dec 1 '12 at 4:04
@cdh updated the answer, I wasn't clear on that part – warl0ck Dec 1 '12 at 4:10
