[SOLVED] Problem installing lynx browser

I'm trying to install the lynx browser. I was able to download the package from AUR and extract it, but when I ran "makepkg -sri" I got the following error: "Failure while downloading lynx2.8.9dev.6.tar.bz2". On the line before that there's another message: "0curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found". My wifi is working so I assume the problem is with the server I'm trying to download from. I'm wondering if this is an issue with the mirror I'm using or something else. I'd appreciate any suggestions for the quickest way to deal with this, thanks!

Why not install the one from the repos?
