Mirror problem with pacman and yay

I tried to install some stuff after a fresh install of endeavour.
Here are the separate commands that i put in that gave me the same error:

sudo pacman -S i3-wm
sudo pacman -S i3-gaps
sudo pacman -S kitty
yay -S i3-gaps
yay -S ferdi

And here is the error output (for the kitty one, but they’re all basically the same)

 sudo pacman -S kitty

Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

Thanks in advance if you have any ideas for the fix.

Regenerate a fresh mirrorlist (think the welcome app has a script for it).

Launch eos welcome app and regenerate your mirrors and run sudo pacman -Syyu.

Thanks will try asap

it worked, thanks!

The requested URL returned error: 404

means the “URL” linking to the package does not exist.
The reason is that the database holds a different version as the mirror holds.
Can be the one from before or opposite the db is old and package is newer…

This can happen if you try updating while a syncing of new packages. SOme mirror can have issues or is slow e.t.c.
In most cases resyncing db will solve this or waiting for 10 minutes :wink:
