Sorry, I did not check back here for a while since removing the address via the Octopi GUI removed the issue.
I do have a /etc/packman.conf.pacnew
indeed, and it’s diferent from the pacman.conf
in the same place.
I opened both of them in a text editor, and although they’re different, none of them has references to http://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/
.
So far, so good.
Could anyone tell me what the significance of the .pacnew
file is? Should I replace the regular one with it?

I find the “ILoveCandy” line funny, but am otherwise unable to tell if the other additions in my pacman.conf
over the pacnew` version are anything relevant or important.
As mentioned, the system is working alright otherwise, so I’d rather not mess with it unless somebody here thinks that it would help me avoid issues in the future.
My other PC does have a reference to AUR in the pacman.conf
, but it’s commented out and has also not causing (visible) issues for half a year.
