Architecture of FBSD world & kernel pkgs in "testing"

Hi,
what is the architecture of the system after installing the latest freebsd-world & freebsd-kernel pkgs in testing? I'm getting 404 errors on "pacman -Syu"  , and complaints that the pkgs to be upgraded have invalid architecture; "x86-64" i think.

Thanks.

There was an Architecture rename done in testing. However I forgot to create one for testing, I had only done the repositories core, extra, community, devel and linux yesterday. Testing I finished a few minutes ago and should work now.

The name change was from x86_64 to amd64.

This is fixed however, since you're already at 10.2 in testing you will need to run the following:

  for file in /var/lib/pacman/local/*/desc; do
    sed -i '' -e 's|\<x86_64\>|amd64|g' "${file}"
  done

This is done in the upgrade 10.1 -> 10.2 now for the architecture change.
