[SOLVED] Missing qt5 dependencies when installing PacketTracer

I'm installing the PacketTracer as per the wiki instructions.

I got stuck at the installation step.

I ran:

makepkg -si

And got this "missing dependencies" error:

:: Retrieving packages...

The 404 errors are pretty self-explanatory, but... What can I do about them?

What a madman, thank you!

How did the upgrade resolve the 404 errors, though?

Does the upgrade perform some repository upgrades too?

Re: [SOLVED] Missing qt5 dependencies when installing PacketTracer

404 indicates that pacman is looking for a file on the mirror that has already been removed, because your local database is out of date. Updating the local db points pacman at the current version.
