Broken xfce4-svn group!

Hi there!

Today I wanted to install xfce4-svn on a machine, but it actually fails, complaining that it cant find xfdesktop-svn-23995-3 and after it downloaded it from some mirror, it complains about package integrity:
error: archive thunar-svn-23959-1.pkg.tar.gz is corrupted
error: archive xfdesktop-svn-23995-3.pkg.tar.gz is corrupted

I did delete both of them from /var/cache/pacman/pkg, but no success. So I guess these packages are broken?!

any solutions?

You have to cd into /var/cache/pacman/pkg and do a

pacman -A thunar-svn-23959-1.pkg.tar.gz

It will tell you about some dependencies that are missing. Install those first with pacman -S, then try pacman -A thunar-svn-23959-1.pkg.tar.gz again. It should now install fine. Then

pacman -A xfdesktop-svn-23995-3.pkg.tar.gz

will again tell you about some deps missing, install those, and run pacman -A xfdesktop-svn-23995-3.pkg.tar.gz again. Now run:

pacman -S xfce4-svn

Done. Good luck !
