[SOLVED] Pacman -Suy cannot find files

Dinth · 2009-03-28 10:23:53

I have selected only fastest for me mirrors for pacman, but now i always have problems with Arch updates.
I can update sometimes 12 hours, sometimes 24h, or even few days after update should be in repository, Thats i think repository maintainer fault, but also pacman, because it cannot select another mirror, when one one it dont find required file.

How many mirrors have you uncommented in /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist?
Which is the first uncommented server?

Pacman will normally retrieve the sync databases from the first mirror in the mirrorlist. Make sure that you're using one that regularly syncs with the main server. You can check Gerbra's page to see servers' sync status: http://users.archlinux.de/~gerbra/mirrorcheck.html

I have uncommented chech server (there is only one) and all polish servers,but pacman tries to use only czech.

one more check you can do is at /etc/pacman.conf. Is there any mirrors selected instead of pointing to /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.
