[SOLVED] 'sg3_utils' package not available from mirrors.

Hi, all!

Just setting-up an xfce desktop and when I install some of the xfce4-goodies, 'sg3_utils' is called for as a dependency. All my other packages are retrieved, but the 'sg3_utils' package cannot be found. This prevents installation of the packages. I have changed my mirror list so that I can get the package elsewhere, but none of the mirrors I have tried, have it.

Is anyone else getting this? Is it a known problem?

### UPDATE: Just noticed that package 'sg3_utils 1.30-1' has recently been issued as an update and my install is trying to download v1.29-1-i686

Any help appreciated.

Cheers,

Chris.

pacman -Syu sg3_utils

You're trying to fetch a version that doesn't exist on the mirrors.

Thank you! Makes sense, but I wonder why the dependency process is asking for the wrong one?

Because your local sync database is old. Dependencies are resolved locally, so the old database looks for the old dependency.
