ZFS package changes

ZFS extramodules; i.e., linuxXX-zfs, have been dropped from the repos. There have been recent difficulties building them and no one on the Manjaro Team uses ZFS.

Please install zfs-dkms instead. You will to need to manually remove the old 2.1.13 extramodule package(s) first to install the new 2.2.0 packages; i.e., with linux61:

sudo pacman -R linux61-zfs && sudo pacman -Syu zfs-dkms

Also, zfs-utils in repo is already version 2.2.0-2.

One more: The [community] repository has been merged into [extra] and is now empty. So you might have not updated for a while or ignored pacnews.

I should mention I have ZFS on root, now:

ZPOOL_VDEV_NAME_PATH=1 pacman -Syu zfs-dkms

To use DKMS packages, you need to install kernel headers for every installed kernel.

I would read the announcent as to first install linux61 and linux61-headers, then reboot into it and then run in your case:

sudo pacman -R linux61-zfs linux65-zfs && sudo pacman -Syu zfs-dkms

[hesi]

Thank you. One note, when first time I removed linux61-zfs && linux65.zfs I can not reboot because boot kernels have no zfs module anymore. I rerun

sudo pacman -S linux61 linux65

Which recompiled and run kernel hooks to include ZFS into boot kernels.

Problem solved! Though update takes significantly longer now due to zfs compilation.

Thank you for help!
