It's been doing this for days. I've tried getting different packages that use rust as a dependency (I think that's what it is) and they all fail because they can't get rust. Updating my mirrorlist with reflector hasn't helped.

It's been updated, so the old package is no longer present on the mirrors.

https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/rust/

Run a full system upgrade (pacman -Syu) and try again.

Classic rookie mistake! I'm surprised it's the first time I've done this.

Thank you
