Eli, I did not mean to imply that the way you showed is wrong. I am totally new to Arch and pacman, so I really don't know how this all works. I am just trying to learn. On Sun, Apr 19, 2015 at 10:39 PM, Eli Schwartz <eschwartz93@gmail.com> wrote:

Just using reflector only, as per the wiki mirror page, wouldn't this be simpler:
sudo reflector --verbose --country 'United States' -l 200 -p http --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
It *seems* to work okay from here, and does not explicitly require use of rankmirrors or a mirrorgen file.
Well, for my use case specifically, which I quoted, I chose to use rankmirrors. ;)
Anyone else is free to use whatever is best for them.
