Post your pacman.conf. It looks like you have [extra] disabled....

# REPOSITORIES

#
# The header [repo-name] is crucial - it must be present and

Nope. As you can see extra ain't disabled.

I was going suggest you post the output of pacman -Sl | awk "BEGIN {foo=\"\"} {if (foo!=\$1){print \$1}} {foo=\$1}"

What is the [archlinuxfr] repository at the bottom of your file?

Hmm... so strange...

This is one of the Unofficial User Repositories.

Gcool · 2012-06-07 09:52:47

Try a full repo db refresh (pacman -Syy) and see if that makes a difference.

I've already tried it but unfortunately had no luck.

headkase · 2012-06-07 10:12:06

The output for your repositories you posted is missing "extra".

pshevtsov · 2012-06-07 10:17:04

The problem was with mirrors.
The following were enabled:

grep '^Server' /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.backup
Server = ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://mirrors.kernel.org/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = ftp://mirror.yandex.ru/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://mirror.yandex.ru/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch

And when I generated the new list with Reflector everything turned well.

Thanks to everybody!

headkase · 2012-06-07 10:19:04

Don't forget to edit your original post and put "[Solved]" in the title..

Edit: faster than me..
