Linux noob still learning the basics with a simple question. Got Plex and *arr suite up and running great but Jellyfin Server refuses to install. Looks like a broken link. How do I use an alternate repo or other install source? Screenshot is the end of the output from running yay -S jellyfin-server and yes I'm on my phone because I'm too high to get up right now.

You didn't upgrade before installing. -y updates the package list to match the mirror, -u updates your system (and you should not use them separately, so if in doubt always use -yu).

So when you try to install (without synchronising the package list first) your system looks at it's outdated package list, then requests files that are no longer on the mirror as they are already on a higher version.
