[SOLVED] glib update fails

Tried an update today and get an error as follows

$ sudo pacman -Syu
:: Synchronising package databases...
 system is up to date

........ looking at
error: failed retrieving file 'glib2-2.70.1-1-aarch64.pkg.tar.xz' from repo.armtixlinux.org : The requested URL returned error: 404
warning: failed to retrieve some files
looking at the repo I see https://repo.armtixlinux.org/system/os/aarch64/glib2-2.70.0-2.1-aarch64.pkg.tar.xz so I suppose the repo db index is ahead of the actual content.

Edit: the update is now working as expected.

Passing two -y or --refresh flags to the -S command will force a refresh of all local package databases by downloading a fresh copy of the master package database from the server(s), even if local databases appear to be up-to-date:

Code: [Select]
sudo pacman -Syyu

I had already done the pacman -Sy and pacman -Syy commands; the armtix update is now working.
