Hi @Obidjon1, and welcome!

That’s what we try to do here.

I think you’d need to chroot into your system, and run the update again, this time copying the errors, as it can happen for many reasons.

How to chroot

  1. Ensure you’ve got a relatively new ISO or at least one with a still supported LTS kernel.

  2. Write/copy/dd the ISO to a USB thumb drive.

  3. When done, boot with the above mentioned USB thumb drive into the live environment.

  4. Once booted, open a terminal and enter the following command to enter the chroot encironment:

manjaro-chroot -a
  1. If you have more than one Linux installation, select the correct one to use from the list provided.

When done, you should now be in the chroot environment.

But, be careful, as you’re now in an actual root environment on your computer, so any changes you make will persist after a restart.

When you’ve successfully entered the chroot environment, run the following commands to sync/update the system again:

  1. First ensure the mirrors and package lists are up-to-date:
sudo pacman-mirrors --refresh && sudo pacman -Syy
  1. Run the sync again:
pamac upgrade --enable-downgrade --aur --devel
