pacman returns 404

Postby pipipi » Thu Mar 19, 2015 1:45 am

I've so far been able to install several packages from the Archlinux ARM mirror, but some (including python2-setuptools and multiple dependencies for vim) fail with a 404 from mirror.archlinuxarm.org. I've got the OS installed pretty much stock on a 14.5GB SD card in a Raspberry Pi (I've added one user and installed sudo and python), downloading over a wired internet connection.

My questions are: Are there good alternate mirrors I can use, is there a reason some packages appear to be missing from the official repo despite being listed on the packages page (is there a known issue?), and is it possible I made a mistake somewhere to have caused this?

Eample output:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '$ sudo pacman -S python2-setuptools

Package got updated on the mirrors and you didn't sync package listings .

Thanks for the help! Everything's working fine now. I can't believe I forgot to update.
