[Solved]LibreOffice

So I have been trying to install LibreOffice for some time now, and it seems my mirrors that I have active are returning a 404 error when trying to download some dependencies. Has anybody run into this problem while trying to install LibreOffice?

additionally to ayekat's post make sure, that your mirrorlist is up-to-date.

I run -Syu every 7-10 days. As far as making sure my mirrorlist is up-to-date, how would I go about that? I am learning Arch by the seat of my pants lol

Have you tried updating it now? Or more precicely, simply look up the package that fails in your case at https://www.archlinux.org/packages/, and compare the versions. If they do not match, it means you should -Syu.

In general, if you run into these sorts of problems, the first fix attempt should be to run -Syu.

Re: [Solved]LibreOffice

I did a -Syu and updated my mirrorlist by running rankmirrors -n 6 /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.bak > /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
