Re: gnome-terminal - 404 in any mirror

do you have trouble installing other packages? If so try using wget for file retrieval in /etc/makepkg.conf. If not there may be an issue on arch's end ie someone updated the package and forgot to run gensync. Give it time.

Re: gnome-terminal - 404 in any mirror

thanks for ur fast response, but i only have troubles with gnome-terminal, all the others packages works fine.

I've browse manually the mirror (ftp.archlinux.org) with a web browser and i've not found the package..

thanks again :S

Re: gnome-terminal - 404 in any mirror

then its a database issue on the repo end. Give it a day or so and see if it doesn't sync back. If it doesn't file a bug.

Re: gnome-terminal - 404 in any mirror

Seems someone deleted some packages from testing. Grabbed some from the ftp.surfnet.nl mirror, they maintain backups of everything that appears on the FTP and even maintains that for years after it has been deleted.
