Timeshift-autosnap-manjaro issues

timeshift has some issues to auto-delete snapshots:
I guess it is not a problem with timeshift due timeshift-autosnap is doing this while updating.

Maybe a bug in Matti Hyttinen / timeshift-autosnap · GitLab @Chrysostomus ?
It’s possible to remove them manually anyways.

cat /var/log/pacman.log | grep "E: Failed"

Can you check if for some reason you have enabled the qgroups function in one of the filesystems?
I checked via Btrfs-Assistant program and in one of my filesystem was enabled ( i think my mistake )…
If you remove this option all work normally…

I checked it with (reports some output, so it is enabled) :

sudo btrfs qgroup show /

and disabled it now with:

sudo btrfs quota disable /
sudo btrfs qgroup show /

reports:

ERROR: can't list qgroups: quotas not enabled

solved thank you @Ste74!
maybe grub-btrfs will enable it again?

Good question, will see later :innocent:
