Question about downloading packages

If possible, I’m here for a short answer to the question: is the problem more likely in my connection or the servers? (This has only happened with brave-bin so far and during system updates there were several packages among hundreds that did not look to download due to error 404)

sudo pacman -S brave-bin
(translated from google.translate) error: failed to get file from:


warning: some files could not be retrieved
error: transaction failed to complete (some files could not be retrieved)
Errors were found, packages were not updated.

Have you tried to rate your mirrors first? You can do it with sudo cachyos-rate-mirrors

But it might be an issue with your DNS settings.

Im using Cloudflare DNS’s 1.1.1.1 & 1.0.0.1
And i don’t think that rate mirrors is good idea because i leave in Ukraine and there could be blackouts so servers may be shutdown, or you think it still worth to try it?

Well it will test the cachyOS repo servers and rate for best performance, they don’t have servers in ukraine so it doesn’t really matter.

Sadly it didn’t help. I think its server problem maybe because i can easily install any other package except brave-bin and couple packages that had error while i updated system today (like 3 out of 500)

Brave-bin installed fine just now from the cachyos-repo

Damn. Just in case, I tried with Cloudflare WARP enabled, warp+doh didn’t help. Well, what can I do, will wait until its fixed :frowning:

or edit the mirror list and select another mirror manually.

sudo pacman -Syu
