[SOLVED] KiCad packages

wanted to install KiCad, but pacman is failing to download two packages (404):

kicad-9.0.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst failed to download
protobuf-30.2-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst failed to download

i did see that the KiCad listed version is 9.0.2-2 instead of -1 (and was able to directly download from a mirror): https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/kicad/
and protobuf is flagged out of date: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/protobuf/

thanks!
