pacman update?

[wulver89]

My apologies if this is extremely simple; I'm used to darwin ports on a UNIX box. I'm attempting to install Apache, PHP, & MySQL on my ARMv6h Raspberry PI.

Seems like this should do the trick -

pacman -S apache php php-apache mysql

However pacman is still looking for older versions of files that aren't present on the main mirrors. ie: apache v. 2.2.22 instead of v. 2.2.23, etc... As expected, I'm generating a ton of 404s.

http://us.mirror.archlinuxarm.org/armv6h/ is the first on my mirror list.

Is there a way to self-update pacman as in mac ports? Or is pacman supposed to automatically sync with an online directory to get file/version names?

Thank You!

Yes
pacman -Syy
but I recommend pacman -Syu

[wulver89]

Thanks!!!

Any particular reason that you recommend the latter?

You would update the system with Syu
Syy merely syncs the database of packages
