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.
yep, dns points me to 108.61.5.83 and i can get there by hostname and address thru the browser. i spun up a new live arch session i built with archiso. still can’t get a hit thru pacman tho. really can’t explain it.
this is very, very strange behavior you’re seeing then.
I have the following in my /etc/pacman.conf
[core]
SigLevel = PackageRequired
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[extra]
SigLevel = PackageRequired
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[multilib]
SigLevel = PackageRequired
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Does yours look like that?
and for mirror list, I have the following mirrors:
Server = https://mirror.stephanie.is/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = https://nocix.mm.fcix.net/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = https://ohioix.mm.fcix.net/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = https://mnvoip.mm.fcix.net/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = https://arch.mirror.ivo.st/$repo/os/$arch
these settings yield me the python library just fine
Edit: the multilib repo is optional in the pacman.conf, as the package you want is in the extra
repo.
