abs error: core.abs.tar.gz no such file or directory

I am trying to learn how to compile packages on Arch but I am getting a error when I try to run abs:

[root@anyhost ~] # abs
==> Downloading tarballs...
==> core...
tar (child): core.abs.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable. Exiting now.
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable exiting now

Any ideas?

I think the package format was changed from tar.gz to .xz a while back.Try to re-install abs and also use an updated mirror.

Download core.abs.tar.gz  manually, and copy it to /var/abs              then run $abs as root ,it's ok?!
