That should now be fixed with the current pkglist.txt and pkglist32.txt. I actually had included the gtk2 and fftw packages in the lists. I think the trouble was that I'd inadvertently included my own gretl-mingw package: that would not be found in the standard repositories, which may have aborted the downloading. One small note: the *toolchain package is a meta-package that includes a lot of things, some of which are not needed for a gretl build. If you install the meta-package then you can safely delete the ada and objective-C compilers: pacman -R mingw-w64-x86_64-ada mingw-w64-x86_64-objc Allin (who has somewhat unexpected wifi access at present)
