libreoffice not downloading

Hey, so I'm pretty new to Arch, but I was trying to download libreoffice, and got 404 errors from every server. I tried again yesterday and again today, and same thing. Every other package downloads fine, and I have perfectly good internet. Not sure what's going on here.

error: failed retrieving file 'libmwaw-0.3.13-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz' from br.mirror.archlinux-br.org : The requested URL returned error: 404

The reason the file is *no longer provided by the repositories*... is because we don't keep old packages around. As soon as a package is updated, we remove the old version. 404 errors are your sign that it is time to do a full system update.

Re: libreoffice not downloading

Did a full update, caused this problem. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=236703. No idea why other than me not updating GRUB as well.
