pacman mirror list issue

arunix · 2009-07-25 03:02:44

hello
i was facing a problem with corrupted files when i updated arch with "pacman -Syu" command then i updated "pacman" and i saw there are two files

/etc/pacman.d/
mirrorlist     mirrorlist.pacnew

so system is using mirrorlist, should i delete the other fle name mirrorlist.pacnew or replace it mirrorlist?

Please read link from Allan, but you can delete mirrorlist.pacnew if you think the update was successfull, because *.pacnew is just a backup from the older one.

That is very wrong...

Never confuse pacnew, pacsave and pacorig.
As Allan said, read http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pac … save_Files !
