Hi all,
I have reason to believe a package I use (python-polib) was moved from the aur to the official extra repo. I’m now having trouble getting it installed.
The old page gives a 404: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-polib This now seems to be the right source for this package: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/python-polib/
However, I do a and pacman can’t find the target. Do I need to do something here that I’m missing?
My pacman.conf includes the “extra” repo and it updates during the Syyu command.
What mirror entry ended up in at the top after running reflector? I can just check the mirror directly.
The package comes up for me just fine on whatever I have for a mirror currently. I’ll have to look in a bit what mirror I use
output:
Server = https://arch.mirror.constant.com/$repo/os/$arch
Server = https://mirrors.rit.edu/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = https://us.mirrors.cicku.me/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = https://america.mirror.pkgbuild.com/$repo/os/$arch
Server = https://mirrors.vectair.net/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = https://mirrors.lug.mtu.edu/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = https://arch.hu.fo/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = https://archmirror1.octyl.net/$repo/os/$arch
Well for the arch.mirror.constant.com mirror at the top, its certainly there.
so doing pacman -Syyu python-polib
Should find the package.
For sanity’s sake, you are on a X86_64 system, right?
absolutely. i’ve tried this on two x86 systems as well, my desktop and laptop. if there’s no quick fix or obvious problem, i’m not above doing a full reinstall to fix this.
i’ll spin up a vm to test too
