[root@ripper ~]# 

Checking one of the mirrors, e.g. http://mirrors.evowise.com/archlinux/core/os/x86_64/ I notice that the packages have a -1 appended to them, e.g systemd-sysvcompat-246-1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
That matches what is being shown in the packages list online:  https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?sor … =&flagged=

But if I grab a copy of core.db and untar it
e.g. http://mirrors.evowise.com/archlinux/co … 64/core.db

[root@ripper ~]# mkdir /tmp/foo
[root@ripper ~]# cd /tmp/foo

So I'm right in thinking that the problem is core.db is out of date online, and that I can't progress until it's updated?

404 means your mirror is out-of-date.

http://mirrors.evowise.com/archlinux/co … 64/core.db is out of sync with its own content.

Re: Online copies of core.db are out of date? [SOLVED]

Ok, commented out evowise; it's the top entry in the worldwide mirror list so you'd hope it would be more sane than the other randoms, but I guess not ;-)

Thanks, all updated.

Another random thought, the mirrorstatus page shows that mirror at 100% and successful.

With a 30 hour delay time and a high (as in bad, the lower the score the better) score, don't trust it as a primary mirror.
