[solved] pacman won't get a fresh copy of updateslist

In the main site it shows all the new updates but when I sync to update the new update lists it just says my list is up to date.

Is there a way to erase the lists to get fresh ones?

Hi akurashy,

did you run "pacman -Syy" ? Otherwise, do you have an internet connection? As I installed Arch the first time, my internet connection won't fully work... I could ping google, but if I typed "pacman -Syu" - it says "up to date", but don't even received packages...

Try using another mirror. Maybe yours hasn't synced in a while
