[Solved] Weird sync behavior

Doctor Drive · 2010-09-12 09:57:09

Since yesterday, running

sudo pacman -Syy

results like this

:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core                     35.6K   28.5K/s 00:00:01 [##############] 100%
 extra                   448.0K   30.0K/s 00:00:00 [#############-]  96%

Now, after that 96 percent it starts getting community

 community               368.0K   30.3K/s 00:00:00 [#############-]  96%

and again, after 96 percent:

error: community.db.tar.gz appears to be truncated: 392502/393865 bytes%
error: failed to update community (failed to retrieve some files)

I also tried

$ sudo rm /var/lib/pacman/*.part

and restarting, but it behaves the same.
Yeap, the network is fine.

What mirror are you using?

Doctor Drive · 2010-09-12 10:06:14

Server = http://mirrors.kernel.org/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch

also tried

Server = ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch

behaves the same

error: extra.db.tar.gz appears to be truncated: 474076/474101 bytes  99%
error: failed to update extra (failed to retrieve some files)
error: community.db.tar.gz appears to be truncated: 392502/394057 bytes%

Sounds familiar... https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/20022

Hmm..
I'm using
pacman 3.4.1-1

not 3.4.0
Seems like bug still remains...
But strange that i had never come into this earlier using previous versions of pacman.

there is a problem with some kernel.org servers. Thomas pinged the admin couples of minutes ago
