That's not a broken package, that is a PGP signature verification error.
I'd say to run pacman with the --debug flag (pacstrap will pass it on to
pacman for you), except the problem is fairly obvious -- the
archlinux-keyring package has been updated a number of times since that ISO.

I suggest you use the current, up-to-date ISO built and hosted on
https://archlinux32.org which is where the official/affiliated efforts
to preserve i686 are being held. Two of the Arch Devs/TUs (Bartłomiej
Piotrowski and Balló György) are involved with the project, and once
official support for i686 is dropped at the end of the year, you will
need to migrate to archlinux32 anyway.

Note that we are optimistic that archlinux32 can receive official
recognition as a tier-two architecture and thus remain affiliated with
archlinux.org itself. :)

...

Regardless, the 2-year-old ISO will not work. You need an ISO which has
pacman 5 on it, in order to have pacman hooks run. These hooks are
important for several reasons, including the fact that they are used to
generate an initramfs and therefore allow you to boot into your
installation. :)

The earliest archlinux.org archiso that will work for you is the March
2016 one, and even then you will have to update the archlinux-keyring
package on its own in order to fix keys that expired and were renewed or
replaced in the two years since your ISO.

You need an updated version archlinux-keyring. I would suggest using the
latest ISO to skip going through hoops to get it to work. The package is
not broken.

There are hardly any real reasons you need for this. This may descend
on you completely randomly, unpredictably and with the fact in mind
that it's the ops that have the banhammer in their hands. It's not
worth negociating IRC here, though, that's why both my quoting and
authoring of email content ends here which might come as a surprise.
As somebody who has been banned on IRC in the past, I'll have to tell
you one thing though: please stop negociating it over another channel,
because it will be used against you on irc.

Basically, please send me a selection of irc channels you frequent
off-list on how we can maintain (in this case revive) our friendship.

If you can, let's get some of the more liberally inclined people on
board so we can get our own channel off the ground, preferably on a
different network.

cheers!
