Re: can't sync abs tree

perhaps it was the time when you tried i can sync without a problem. your pacman package may be out of date as well?

just some guesses.

Re: can't sync abs tree

i wonder if it's because it's the nptl pacman? how can i change it back to current?

>nope, that wasn't it. do i need something in my /etc/hosts file?

>>or come to think of it, maybe it's the nptl glibc -- weren't people having trouble with internet connecting with that? let me try to change THAT back...(actually i'm afraid to. do i just pacman -Sy glibc with current, or <shakes nervously> remove the nptl version first?)
