[SOLVED] Pacman Error 404

Hi all,

I know this is a very routine occurance, but I'm struggling. I'm not sure if getting these 404 errors could potentially cause problems in future.
I tried out a bunch of different mirrors close to where I live and get the same errors, always on coredb and extra. Seem to get the errors no matter what mirrors I use.

$ uname -r
4.9.62-1-lts

$ sudo pacman -Syy

Re: [SOLVED] Pacman Error 404

Arch doesn't sign their db files, so no .sig files for them exist.
