Definitely exists in [core]...

https://www.archlinux.org/packages/core/x86_64/libnsl/

Bad mirror? Bad repo config?

> Bad mirror?
I use these:

## Worldwide
Server = http://mirrors.evowise.com/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://mirror.rackspace.com/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch

>Bad repo config?
Is used default config except multilib.

It's Strange. On my another arch PC all's well. :\

Eli Schwartz, I've tried many times. The result is the same.

I've deleted multilib in this screenshot.

The mirror is broken -- their core.db doesn't contain a libnsl entry.
Comment by Bogdan Kushnir (Wise_Deer) - Tuesday, 24 April 2018, 13:28 GMT
True. Have setted up another mirrors and it works correct. Thank.
Comment by Florian Pritz (bluewind) - Tuesday, 24 April 2018, 13:47 GMT
The evowise mirror is actually a CDN so it's difficult to tell what is broken. It seems to be fine for me, but I'll send them a mail.
Comment by Eli Schwartz (eschwartz) - Tuesday, 24 April 2018, 13:54 GMT
Well, I see a few things missing in core.db community.db but their extra.db matches the one I synced from mirror.lty.me

They seem to have the old versions still available, too.

It this still broken? If so, please run the command below and check 1) if it finds libnsl and 2) which IP address you connected to.

curl -sv http://mirrors.evowise.com/archlinux/core/os/x86_64/core.db.tar.gz | tar tzf - | grep libnsl

* Connected to mirrors.evowise.com (104.19.135.75) port 80 (#0)

Currently works for me, I guess. It matches my default rit.edu mirror exactly from my current location, which is the same one that had issues before.
