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 # pacman -Syyu python-polib 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.

    so… i did another reflector refresh and then did an Syyu. Now this is happening…

    this is with the mirrorlist shown in the picture below. not sure why i’d be getting almost 3 gigs of updates right now. i’ve been updating this and using this machine daily for months on this installation. when that is complete i’ll try for python-polib again.

    about 15 ruby packages got replaced with extra/ruby just now too.

      well… thats a good sign at least. hopefully it finally latched on to some working mirrors then. I’d surely think it should find that library now lol
