Did this get resolved. If not try opening up the firewall setting for 10 mins and try the download. I know recently the archlinux build has been fixed to allow update proxy via Qubes update proxy setting. Prior this it could not be done directly thru Pacman without breaking the proxy firewall rule. You needed to install and use Powerpill wrapper for Pacman. Set update proxy IP in Aria2. I think I had this all in the Qubes Doc for Archlinux with example of the config file settings. IMHO Powerpill wrapper is far superior in every way to default Pacman with Wget or Curl. Its faster for granular config, allows for parallel and segmented downloads. With Reflector you can get the very fastest up today mirrors for you location. XYNE controls all the code for those apps and from my experience has been restive to requests and suggestions. Anyways take a look. The only issue with reflector is no place to enter a proxy IP which I will be asking of xyne to see if he can add it. This is tech a sep issue from Pacman and Powerpill which the later has proxy line entry in config via Aria2 config keeping to update proxy secpol. With that said according to the post by Olivier update proxy now functions properly with pacman. I have not personally tested this yet so can no comment personally beyond what I read. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
