Interrupted download

Support
1

Hello, I was updating and the download was interrupted because some error (503) in the mirror (France, not up to date mirror according the check service).

I changed mirrors, and If i try to update, the message before asking you if you want to continue or not, says that the download size is around 200Mb instead of the initial one, around 4Gb, I guess because of the previous downloaded packages.

The installation size is around the same 10Gb and I think the size after update is the same but I dont know for sure.

Do I have to do something to fix it? Or I can continue, Are the pacakges correct?

Some important notes

I did run the next steps before updating:

pacman-mirrors --status and all were OK.

NOTE: I think it is important to note that after the error I checked the mirror status service and the mirrors that said that were OK in the terminal after this command, actually were not up to date.

sudo pacman -Syy manjaro-keyring archlinux-keyring

sudo pacman -Syu

In and of itself, that’s not such a big problem, in the sense that pacman will then fetch the pertinent package from the next mirror in the list. However, the golden rule with every bundled update is to always update your mirror list first before running the update process. :backhand_index_pointing_down:

sudo pacman-mirrors -f && sudo pacman -Syu && pamac update
