Pacman cannot connect to berlios.de to access "larch"

While trying out larch7, I find that pacman cannot download from ftp.berlios.de which has the larch scripts and tar.gz packages for the installation .

What prevents pacman from connecting with the berlios ftp?

I suspect the package ID may be at fault...

I have no clue other than that.

The address is ....    ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/larch/larch7/i686

I am aware that this is a common problem and wish to understand why it happens.
Edit:   /var/cache/pacman/pkg -Sy

:-error: failed retrieving file 'larch.db.tar.gz' from ftp.berlios.de : File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
:-error: failed to update larch (File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access))
