Cannont run pacman -Syu [Solved]

Tried to upgrade today... I get this error:

is easynews.com mirror down? should I just select another mirror?

That package has been around for ages so it is not likely to be a short term mirror sync issues.   Changing mirrors seems a good idea.

Or perhaps it was a short-term issue where the mirror had recieved the new xorg-server-1.7.1.902-1 and not had its db updated yet?  Or, the OP might not have synced with -y.
