Hello,
I’m new to the forum and relatively new to linux, and I really wish I came up with a better title for this, but I hope this describes it. Also I hope I formattet the logs right…
basic information:
manjaro
stable
kde plasma
kernel 5.9.16-1
how the errors appeared:
I didn’t run manjaro for two weeks and got a lot of updates on packages and the kernel (5.10.2-2) in pamac. I ran all of them (1.8 GB as orientation, idk) and at the end I got a massive list of errors. As most of them seem to point to the kernel I hope I’m in the right category.
what I did:
I googled some of them and most pointed to people that can’t boot after some kernel update. I really wish to avoid that and did not reboot jet.
The most concerning error for me is Error while configuring manjaro-system
(full error-list below). The rest of the errors all are the type of
Warning: <sth>: /usr/lib/modules/5.10.2-2-MANJARO/kernel/<sth> already existed in filesystem It has been backed up to <sth>
and could just indicate, that kernel stuff is being backed up… but why is it a warning then?
I also tried checking the pacman log and found 5 errors, but nothing helps. One is really unspecific and the other 4 are about kernel 5.8.18-1 so probably unrelevant. Its over a thousand lines long so I included a section at the end.
my concern:
Are those errors critical to boot ('cause googleing seems to point to that)? Can I find out more?
I hope someone could help me out. I’m not really a noob but can’t find any instructions how to fix this and the very unspecific errors don’t lead me anywhere either.
Thanks for everyone who read that and might help.

A restart is required for the changes to take effect.
