LibCap update Bug: FIXED

ARM
1

One humble day i was messing with Rasp pi and in pamac i installed the “imager” app. by default, it updates the system like sudo pacman -Syu, it went very well (:foreshadowing:), core, extra, multilib, but one time it said something like: Error: Failed to update “lib32=libcap2.71”
Ignore it? [N/s] and ignored it, then nothing was installed and the “nothing to do lmaooooo” message appereaded and i almost reinstaled it.

But 2 hours later, i thinked:

" :thinking: :thinking: Oh i can open the GUI and conf. to it not update auto"

Oh boy it worked (kinda), THE LIBCAP BUG didnt appear!!! now you will see “if the system talked”:

Ok now its time to kill bash and pamac cmd LoLLLLLLL :laughing: :laughing: :rofl: :rofl:

And it came back, at least i could use the GUI. And thats it. (Obs: I dont have ACTUAL msgs from terminal cuz i killed my /home folder and after my / folder soooooooo)

Summary:

  • LibCap bugged
  • I messed with pamac
  • It fixed
  • I lost pamac/pacman on bash
  • My OS died
  • Im here
    I made this post to potencially help ppl with repo bugs, especially this one (this is why it hopped to manjaro), also this is my Hello post. Bye :wink:

Sorry, come again?

I’m not sure I understand … almost anything.

I dont know what your original issue was, or even images - no such package exists in the repos or the AUR.

I can maybe guess that

Might mean you used downgrade and were offered to add a package to the ignore list in pacman.conf?

In which case - you should remove the ignored packages from your /etc/pacman.conf file to return to a supported state.
