Vte3-0.78.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst failing install from all mirrors

Message: error: failed retrieving file 'vte3-0.78.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst' from mirror.moson.org : The requested URL returned error: 404

I’m getting this from every mirror that it tries. This is a fresh, off-line install of EOS, the mirrors were updated, and I’m attempting to sudo pacman -S timeshift. All the listed packages are retrieved except for vte3-0.78.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst. It gets part way into it and then errors out on every mirror. I’ve tried this several times over a period of several hours with the same results.

I was successful with sudo pacman -S micro.

Maybe the vte3-0.78.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst package got borked?

Try:

sudo pacman -Syu timeshift

Always make sure your system is updated before installing software.

It installs. Try a different server, for example, this one.

Server = https://arch.mirror.constant.com/$repo/os/$arch

That isn’t the issue. The issue is pacman is looking for a package that isn’t in the repos anymore because an offline install was done without updating so the local database is out of date.

You were right. The server has

vte3 0.80.2-1

My intent was to make a TS backup of the base install without updates. But doing sudo pacman -Syu timeshift worked (thanks) and that should still work for my purposes. I’m doing some comparative testing to try and nail down the Brave border issue I am experiencing.
