Trying to add the Universe Repo to pacman.conf, fails to pull from it.

Just installed, but trying to configure pacman.conf to use the Universe repos, but when I use the links provided in the guide, I end up getting 404 errors on the first 4, and the ftp link gives me an invalid SSL certificate.

Code: [Select]
 # The gremlins repositories are disabled by default. To enable, uncomment the
# repo name header and Include lines. You can add preferred servers immediately
# after the header, and they will be used before the default mirrors.

#[gremlins]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[system]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[world]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

#[galaxy-gremlins]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[galaxy]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[universe]
Server = https://universe.artixlinux.org/$arch
Server = https://mirror1.artixlinux.org/universe/$arch
Server = https://mirror.pascalpuffke.de/artix-universe/$arch
Server = https://artixlinux.qontinuum.space:4443/artixlinux/universe/os/$arch
Server = https://mirror1.cl.netactuate.com/artix/universe/$arch
Server = https://ftp.crifo.org/artix-universe/

[omniverse]
Server = http://omniverse.artixlinux.org/$arch
# If you want to run 32 bit applications on your x86_64 system,
# enable the lib32 repositories as required here.

#[lib32-gremlins]

[lib32]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

those are my artix repos and all are working

keyring was updated so you probably need to install the update

What do you mean by installing the update? I'm trying to sync the repositories after adding them but it isn't working. I added the servers for the Universe repo like you have them and try to sync, but get the same errors as before.

(Edit: Realized you meant updating the Keyring, but I tried that and it didn't work. I reinstalled it, but nothing.)

Can you access them via your browser, to check there is nothing strange about your net connection? Go to e.g.:
https://universe.artixlinux.org/x86_64/
Also you could recheck your config, that you have the [universe] at the start and so on I suppose.
Thinking about  that ssl certificate error you could check your time and date is set correctly in the BIOS or whatever because that can cause those type of issues too.

It's accessible via browser, so I don't think it's a network thing. Let me try putting the Universe repo on top like you said.

(Edit: Seems to work now. Don't know why it being on top would be the solution.)

artix repos must come first before non-artix repos as it pulls from them first.  put arch last.  put herecura and liquorix and linux-libre and all others between them

I actually meant that you should check the [universe] header was at the start of that field, not the first repo listed in the file, but I'm happy you fixed it anyway  ;D  Perhaps you had it listed after some arch linux extra and community repos and had not installed the artix-archlinux-support package from the universe repo at that point?
