the -svn packages usually don't come with a source - they download all their sources from a subversion repo, which happens in the build() function.

got the solution. Some servers do not have this package and hence one gets the error that xfdesktop-svn 23995-3 package cannot be found. but if you let pacman work for sometime, then after a few attempts, it will find the server which has the package and download it.

The solution I posted earlier is wrong. Actualy, I failed to notice that even after downloading xfdesktop-svn 23995-3, it is not being installed since it is currupted. Here is the error:

I haven't tested it but there are new -svn packages now.

You need to find a more reliable mirror.

No he doesn't, the package was broken. The db was looking for one svn revision and the package on the arch ftp was another.
