can't download gnome

I am trying to install gnucash. one of the dependencies is gnome. when I try to pacman -S gnome I download most but I keep getting some that will not download. I have tried pacman -S gnome 5 times over the last week trying different times and the same thing happens. this is the result:
error: failed retrieving file 'libsoup-2.4.1-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz' from ftp.uni-kl.de : Not Found
error: failed retrieving file 'libxklavier-3.5-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz' from ftp.uni-kl.de : Not Found
error: failed retrieving file 'libgnomekbd-2.22.0-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz' from ftp.uni-kl.de : Not Found
error: failed retrieving file 'speex-1.1.12-1.pkg.tar.gz' from ftp.uni-kl.de : Not Found
error: failed retrieving file 'gnome-media-2.22.0-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz' from ftp.uni-kl.de : Not Found
error: failed retrieving file 'yelp-2.23.1-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz' from ftp.uni-kl.de : Not Found   
This is a list of the files that do not download, the ftp server they try to download from is pages long, this is just a sampling  of the results. What do I do?

Re: can't download gnome

I would try another mirror, just tested that one myself and got the same result.

it seems like most have no access, why since it is whats in the original pacman download? This is the original download list when I first installed packman and updated it. The wiki says to change the mirror list in the /etc/pacman.d. But since I have not messed with this particular process yet I hesitate because I do not want to mess the only downloads that I do have. Should I change repositories/mirrors and how soas not to mess anything up? The wiki indicates that the repositories and mirrors are already set and I would only have to list a favorite one to have it go there first.

Re: can't download gnome

Do a "pacman -Syy" once you change to the new mirror.  In fact, the files you are after appear to be on the initial mirror anyway, so refreshing the pacman database (pacman -Sy) was probably enough...
