gcstar package broken?

Hi,
I could solve every problem I came across on my own (by reading the wiki or this forum)
so this is my first post. big_smile

I tried to install Gcstar (a movie manager located in the community repos) but unfortunately the package is only 857bytes in size.

Is anyone able to install gcstar?


PS: I'm using the hosteurope.de mirror.

regards

Re: gcstar package broken?

either try another mirror or focer the mirror to sync. with

pacman -Syy gcstar

and see if that works.

I installed the package just fine. 2.1 mb download.

Hey, thanks for your reply. smile

Syncing did not solve the problem,
but I switched to another mirror and now its working.

ftp://ftp.hosteurope.de/mirror/ftp.arch … pkg.tar.gz
This is the broken package,
do you know where I can report this issue of the hosteurope server?

greets
and thanks for your help!

Re: gcstar package broken?

Unfortunately hosteurope.de is not the only mirror gcstar is broken,
did various tests (pacman -Si gcstar) on different mirrors and on most of them (including my favs) the package is broken. sad

edit, even on the official archlinux.org mirror the package is now broken!

Can someone else test it please? smile

Edit2: I think this issue is new since ver. 1.3.1-2 of the package,
not-up-to-date mirrors providing ver. 1.3.1-1 are not broken. hmm
