Description
Hi,
I tried to do a full system upgrade earlier using 'pacman -Su'. The vast majority of the packages downloaded fine; however, a handful returned errors, which prevented the upgrade from completing. These are the errors:

This is normal and expected behaviour.
Your Repo list is out-of-date.
So pacman is trying to pull out-of-date packages that do not exist on the server anymore.
You need to:
sudo pacman -Sy
and then you can safely
sudo pacman -Su
Or you can combine them into:
sudo pacman -Suy

Wow, that is so weird. I could have sworn I had run
pacman -Sy
beforehand (at least once), and it said the package lists were up to date. Nothing to see here then!

just FYI you really dont need repomirror on your mirrorlist - i think repomirror is actually obsolete or redundant now that we dont redirect to arch mirrors anymore - the most reliable mirrorlist will have redirector several times in succession, like in the default one https://repo.parabola.nu/mirrorlist.txt - if you want to prefer ones that are nearby you, put those above the others; but leave redirector several times below the preferred mirrors
