Installing subversion

Hey,
So I'm trying to install E17 as my DE, and one of its dependencies is subversion. So I try to install subversion and it gives me an error when trying to get subversion-1.7.7-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz from the mirror sites. I have every mirror site uncommented in mirrorlist.d and it tries to download it from each mirror but at every site it returns the error 404 not found. So I went on to one of the sites in my browser and I discovered that the version on the site is subversion-1.7.7-2 and not -1 like pacman tries to install. Is there any way to work around this? Am I just crazy? Isn't it ironic that I can't download subversion, a program that handles different file versions, because it is looking for the wrong version?

Thanks for your help

Re: Installing subversion

Resynch pacman's database to an up-to-date mirror, and then retry...

Re: Installing subversion

Update your package list.

pacman -Sy

Since your package list is out of date, you should probably upgrade your system too (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pa … g_packages).
