Refresh your mirrors. See:
Hi,
I don’t know how to refresh mirrors.
Can you give the command for terminal?
Thanks!
Jesse
You can refresh your mirrors through pamac gui if your not comfortable with cli. All the mirror related comands are in the wiki, plenty of excellent guides in there

Hi,
I think I did refresh the mirrors already?
sudo pacman-mirrors --fasttrack 10 && sudo pacman -Syyu
See my original post
Jesse
I’m having issues here as well. Maybe just change to stable branch for now?

Hi,
Same error as previous posters. Refreshing mirrors does not help, throws 404 errors.
same here 
Sorry I forgot to mention I am on the “Testing” branch…
Looks pretty down to me:

-> error installing repo packages
Problem still exists even when using a synced mirror.
Those are broken symlinks.
community.db -> community.db.tar.xz
community.files -> community.files.tar.xz
They point to .xz, there is only .gz files though:
community.db.tar.gz
community.files.tar.gz

Any idea what caused the issue?
