How to Update Arch Linux Mirrorlist by Country

sudo pacman -S reflector

reflector --country <country code> --latest 5 --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

Replace <country code> with the two-letter country code for the country you want to refresh. For example, to refresh the mirrorlist for the United States, you would run the following command:

reflector --country US --latest 5 --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

Once the new mirrorlist has been generated, you can force pacman to refresh the package lists by running the following command:

pacman -Syyu --refresh

This will ensure that you are using the latest mirrors for your country.

You can use the --country flag to specify multiple countries. For example, to refresh the mirrorlist for the United States and Canada, you would run the following command:

reflector --country US,CA --latest 5 --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

You can use the --latest flag to specify the number of mirrors you want to keep. The default is 5. You can use the --sort flag to specify how you want the mirrors to be sorted. The default is by rate. You can also sort by latency or last update. You can use the --save flag to specify the file where you want the new mirrorlist to be saved. The default is /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.
