Trying to install anything inside ublue-os/arch-distrobox fails
I tried several Arch distrobox variants but so far, only docker and quay.io is behaving. When I try to install anything with pacman inside of an arch-distrobox, it always fails with 404, but it works fine in the other variants.
Am I missing something here?

pacman -Syu doesn't help?oh good idea, i should try that, i just didnt expect to have to update first prior to installing packages :sweat_nervous:
looks like that did the trick thank you. Perhaps the ublue-os/arch-distrobox is very out of date or something?
It's a good idea to update a container immediately after creating it, just like how you'd run apt update+upgrade right after setting up an Ubuntu server
