mkvtoolnix-cli and mkvtoolnix-gui packages seem to be missing [Solved]

the_mungler · 2022-09-23 07:42:16

Trying to install the named packages above. I checked and made sure everything is up to date, that isn't the issue. It's odd, I just get a lot of 404 errors from all the mirrors. everything else can install fine. the output is full of error messages for every mirror pacman attempts to download the package from.

command output (truncated for brevity, I'm just getting the same message for every mirror attempted):

pacman -S mkvtoolnix-gui

I don't think I'm doing anything wrong, is it possible there is something wrong with this package?

See Pacman#Packages_cannot_be_retrieved_on_installation your system's package database is out of date.

odd, I ran pacman -Syu before attempting this, but you're right, the version pacman is trying to get is 70.0.0-1, but it should be 70.0.0-2. just now I attempted to update the database but pacman tells me there is nothing to do...

pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date
 community is up to date
 multilib is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
 there is nothing to do

for some reason my pacman command is doing nothing?

Out of sync mirror?

Edit: no, they're not.

I am assuming your system's primary mirror (the first mirror in the mirrorlist) is mirror.ette.biz which is out of sync according to https://archlinux.org/mirrors/status/ so change that mirror and the issue should be resolved.

ah, yup, that appears to be the case.
