EDIT: Never mind. prevu-update did the trick.
I have a problem, too. Prevu fails on anything that even remotely depends on Firefox preducing 404 errors whenever it tries to download it. This concerns VLC and Liferea, as of now, but I'm sure that there might be more cases. The terminal outputs the following:

Prevu Error: Build failed.
Notice the requested package by prevu (2.0.0.8) is three version numbers behind the actually installed package (2.0.0.11). Go figure...
Also note that I have firefox and firefox-dev already installed.
