[SOLVED]Mirrors All Out of Sync

Today I went to reinstall a package(thunar) after trying out PCManFM and realized I don't like it and I got these errors:

:: Retrieving packages from extra...
error: failed retrieving file 'thunar-1.6.0-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz' from hive.ist.unomaha.edu : The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found
error: failed retrieving file 'thunar-1.6.0-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz' from hive.ist.unomaha.edu : The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found
warning: failed to retrieve some files from extra
error: failed to commit transaction (download library error)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded

So I tried uncommenting a different mirror and got the same thing. Then I uncommented every mirror in my country and got this error:

:: Retrieving packages from extra...
error: failed retrieving file 'thunar-1.6.0-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz' from mirror.us.leaseweb.net : The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found

I doubled checked /etc/pacman.conf to be sure that all my repositories are uncommented. Indeed they are. What's going on here?

Re: [SOLVED]Mirrors All Out of Sync

It's not the mirrors out of sync, it's your local database. The current version of thunar is 1.6.1-1. Do a pacman -Syu first.

Re: [SOLVED]Mirrors All Out of Sync

Next time, please post the input (the command you're using) too, e.g. 'pacman -S thunar' is different from 'pacman -Syu thunar'.

Wow I feel dumb now. Sorry, and thanks for pointing that out.
