Automount failing

Hello, since yesterday’s update I experience a similar issue with automount failing:

-- Boot 94d97f5b2a17431ba67061899f46149a --

Can this be related? Would the pamac history help to isolate?

Do you happen to have the autofs package from the AUR installed? That seems to be the one which provides the systemd autofs.service. If so, then you may need to rebuild it against the updated libxml2 library:

pamac build autofs

AUR (en) - autofs - A kernel-based automounter for Linux

Your posts have been moved to a dedicated topic.


I note that your issue doesn’t seem to share anything remotely similar to the other member’s topic which you hijacked - adding your issue to another member’s topic is generally discouraged.

Welcome to the Manjaro community

As a new or infrequent forum user, please take some time to familiarise yourself with Forum requirements, and the many ways to use the forum to your benefit:


Update Announcements

The Update Announcements contain important information and a Known Issues and Solutions section that should generally be checked before posting a request for support.

System Information

While information from *-fetch type apps might be fine for someone wishing to buy your computer, for Support purposes it’s better to ask your system directly; :eyes:

Output of the inxi command with appropriate parameters will achieve this (naturally, formatted according to forum guidelines) and will generally be more useful for those wishing to help:

inxi --filter --verbosity=8

or the short form:

inxi -zv8

Be prepared to provide output from other commands whenever asked. It’s equally important to provide as much actionable information as possible in your first post, rather than simply indicating there is a problem.

If that doesn’t work then you could install libxml2-legacy.
