Hi,

I ran into and error when I updated my mirrorlist. After debugging it 
seems that the cause was that the top mirror on the current mirror list 
(https://gitea.artixlinux.org/packages/artix-mirrorlist/src/branch/master/mirrorlist) 
has outdated packages.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Add the top mirror from the list from the website at the top of the 
/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist:
     Server = https://mirror.clarkson.edu/artix-linux/repos/$repo/os/$arch

2. Run pacman -Syyu

3. If you have packages that are affected you'll get warnings that the 
local version is newer than e.g. world. Otherwise compare a package 
(e.g. yt-dlp or ansible) with pacman -Si and the version on 
https://packages.artixlinux.org/packages/


Best,
Niklas
