Update error: failed do sync database

[ehine]

I was trying to update the system and the following error keeps showing up:

[solanaceae@solanaceae-Acer ~]$ sudo pacman -Syyuu
[sudo] senha para solanaceae:

erro: falha ao obter o arquivo "custom.db" de disco : Couldn't open file /home/custompkgs/custom.db
error: failed to sync all databases (download library error) 

I’ve tried to update the mirrors, clean the cache… nothing worked so far. Any clues on what to do is appreciated!

Welcome here, @ehine,

remove or comment out (by adding “#” at the begin of the line) your custom.db entries in your /etc/pacman.conf file, then reboot and then try

sudo pacman-mirrors -f && sudo pacman -Syyu
