Packer not finding some packages - archlinux

packer seems to be missing some packages today. For instance, when I try to search for texlive it finds texlive properly. But when I instead search for dropbox or spotify, it doesn't return anything. Anybody else experiencing something similar?

Trying to install React in Visual studio code?

I am just learning react now. I tried to install react app so many times in my Visual studio but It didn't work. It always shows installing required packages and I've waited so many hours with so many tries it didn't worked as well. I have this issue only and Node install 'my-app' folder with simple json file only. Anyone knows what's the problem here?
enter image description here
I tried to update Node recent version but it was already updated. Even i tried Non LTS supoert Node version it couldn't helped me.
I tried different types of package manager like 'npm' and 'yarn' instead of using 'npx' but then I know these package managers supported before node version 5.2 or 5.8, I think.
I searched for this problem in youtube nothing else there.
I used metered network in my PC but when I used WiFi with stable connection also it didn't install.
I tried so many different extensions in Visual studio, I thought it would be help but none happened.
What are the problems here? and What i want to do pls explain to me, bros.

Yum package dependency error not allowing package install

I'm trying to install rpm-build, but it seems there is some problems with dependencies:
The package that's installed is coming from a repo which is no longer available (linuxcoe_update_errata), I don't know what happened to it but the URL is no longer accessible, and the package that it wants to install is coming from another repo called core (this repo works just fine)
Seems like rpm-build need a lower version for rpm, which apparently should be not a problem. I tried dowgrading the version but is not working, again more conflicts, I tried to remove that package, but maybe because the repo that installed it is no longer available it does not uninstall anything.
How can I fix this? I need to install rpm-build in this machine, can't do it on another, but is not letting me. I think the problem has to be related to the repo which the package came from not being available anymore (linuxcoe_update_errata). I tried enabling notify_only=1 in /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/search-disabled-repos.conf so yum can try to resolve the error but itself, but still nothing. Any ideas? I'm really confused about this,

Remove all packages from locally hosted verdaccio UI

So, I have verdaccio hosted on my local machine. I have a few packages published on it as well with versions. What I want to do is, clear all of these packages with their versions. Like a reset to my verdaccio. I can unpublish the packages via npm unpublish command, but that would take me time since there are many versions. I am aware a similar question exists here Question, but it quite doesn't solve my problem.
To summarize, is there any way where I can remove all packages from my local verdaccio in one step (or maybe two steps) or any command? Basically a quicker way.
I found a way. Actually this was not what I was looking for, but it solves the problem. So, I can just delete the packages which I do not want from the verdaccio storage directory. This directory can be found here:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\verdaccio\storage
It has sub directories of all the published packages. Just delete the ones which are not needed. I was actually looking for a more npm and verdaccio command specific way, but this seems to work fine.

Arch Linux - Installed packages gone after restart

I'm trying to install some fonts in Arch Linux (using yay font). The installation is fine, no problem at all. But, after restarting my computer, those installed fonts are gone. I tried to install them again, and restarted. The fonts are always gone.
I also notice that I have to update a lot of packages every morning (using yay). But they are not always the same packages, thus I've thought they may just update so frequently.
I've just started using Arch Linux 2 months ago, and I struggled a lot to install it. Therefore I think I might still leave a lot of errors and mistakes. I need some help please, thank you very much.
The problem is solved today somehow. Apparently, there were a lot of errors and warnings when I used pacman -Syu, and never read all of them. It has gone like that until now. Then, I got a conflict when updating packages, searched on Google, solved it, rebuilt all packages, and this problem is somehow gone as well.

Eclipse Helios 3.6.0 hangs while installing Egit

I am trying to install Egit on my eclipse using market place.
The problem i am facing is that the installation gets stuck at 49%. I waited for almost 2 hours yesterday but still the installation did not happen. Has anyone faced any such problems before?
Is there a manual way i can install Egit. i.e. by downloading a package and then installing. I am using windows 7 machine.
Can anyone please guide me on this issue?
P.s: I have gone through the previous asked questions, and i do not have many other sites being used as download pages.(So it is not slow due to loading of many sites)
What has worked for me is the following:
Find a mirror in your country, in my case was http://eclipse.tsl.gr/egit/updates-1.3/
Go to install software and paste the mirror url in the work with box and select the packages you wish to install
This is the solver: un check "Contact all update sites during install to find required software"
I am not sure whether it helped but I also updated Java to latest version while trying to install EGit on Helios.
Have you tried installing EGit from the following update site?
http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates
You can use this update site by going to:
Help > Install New Software...
and enter the URL in the Work with: text box
I had the same problem as the OP with all marketplace plugins. My downloads of plugins consistently got stuck on 48% or 49% and would eventually time out.
In my case, I solved the problem by turning off my antivirus and then downloading plugins.
While my antivirus was turned off, I did not browse the web. I also ran antivirus and anti malware scans afterwards.
