[solved] Cannot install Evince
Hello!
I am new to Archlinux and have just recently installed it. I have a problem with getting a pdf reader though. I am trying to install Evince and when I give the command pacman -Ss evince I get the following respond:
extra/evince 2.28.1-1 (gnome-extra)
Simply a document viewer
No problem there. But when I try to install with pacman -S evince it plainly claims that it cannot find the file evince-2.28.1-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz from neither of the six repositories I use. But I wonder, since it is actually found with the -Ss flag it should be there, shouldn't it?

Re: [solved] Cannot install Evince
pacman -Syy and try again? Also, you could try checking the mirrors...
