It looked like it was going to work, but then this error was reported:

(132/132) checking package integrity 
[#######################################################] 100%
error: gambas3-ide: signature from "home:gambas OBS Project <home:gambas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>" is invalid
:: File /var/cache/pacman/pkg/gambas3-ide-3.20.99+git.20250719.3e1b307a-0-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst is corrupted (invalid or corrupted 
package (PGP signature)).
Do you want to delete it? [Y/n] n
error: failed to commit transaction (invalid or corrupted package)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.


So, then I went through the key and fingerprint commands again replacing "download" with "downloadcontent" (ie. `key=$(curl 
-fsSL https://downloadcontent.opensuse.org/repositories/home:gambas:master/ArchLinux/$(uname 
-m)/home_gambas_master_ArchLinux.key)`, etc.), and got the same error.

I then cleared the 'pacman' cache with `pacman -Sc`. And, the installation succeeded. I now have Gambas 3.20.99 installed, and 
it launches successfully.

Perhaps merely clearing the cache would have been sufficient so that all the files were downloaded from the "downloadcontent" 
subdomain.
