Hello,

with the latest version of Manjaro (GNOME) I have an issue with Pacman, I get an infinite loop and I have to kill the process.

Hello,

Is this happening for the CLI or UI of Pamac?

Pressing c to [c]ontinue is not working at all ?
Can you also mention what version of Pamac you have installed now?

seems there is an issue in our script. We have to fix this at some point. For diagnosis we need your pacman.log file. You may use pastebin.

4

The issue is this:

hardcode-fixer needs an update before it can work. @Ste74 do we need that?

5

Removing the loop of hardcode-fixer

6

Updateing manjaro-system

@thibault does an update to manjaro-system-20200906-1 fix your loop?
