When syncing, I now get the error SSL: no alternative certificate subject name matches target host name 'arch.alerque.com':

pacman -Sy:

 alerque.db failed to download
error: failed retrieving file 'alerque.db' from arch.alerque.com : SSL: no alternative certificate subject name matches target host name 'arch.alerque.com'
error: failed to synchronize all databases (download library error)

Thanks for the report. I'm having trouble with pacman too. The cert shows as up to date in the browser through so I'm confused what happened. I'll be looking into it.

It's DNS. I screwed up DNS and some requests are hitting an old legacy server, some hitting a new one. Working on it...

This should be resolved. If you have a DNS resolver cache it might need a poke, but it should clear up soon. Thanks again for the report and sorry for the disruption.
