I'm also having major problems upgrading my system. Pacman errors out
and it tells me I have 77 packages to update and I was current two
days ago. I believe it is 77 and counting. Last night it was 66.
I'm using the kernel.org site for my packages now. I used to use
easynews but it got out of date for a while so switched. kernel.org
isn't going bad, is it?
kernel.org has done me well during this update. There's more than one
server answering to that name, and not all of them are equally
up-to-date. Keep at it and you'll get one of the leading ones.
mirrors.kernel.org in fact is not a single mirror. is an alias to a
geolocation subdomain and from there is serving from closer
geographically position(in theory).
for you maybe you hit in an up to date server.
