I puffed together a script to show the difference as they are provided by master branch of the iso-profiles repo.
Yes - that is because this package depends on timeshift
timeshift-autosnap-manjaro
So rightfully that package should be tagged as >extra or the timeshift package should have the >extra tag removed.
@Yochanan could you please take a look when you have time?
to update to this latest version , do I download the ISO then flash with etcher and boot via usb?
yes, check at list the 512 checksum and boot from usb
clean the previous EFI bootmgr and install the the new
DISTRIB_ID=âManjaroLinuxâ
DISTRIB_RELEASE=â23.0.0â
DISTRIB_CODENAME=âUranosâ
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION=âManjaro Linuxâ
this is what im seeing right now on my laptop?
If your system is up to date your already on the newest version as your post is showing.
No, Manjaro is a rolling-release distribution, and so if youâre already running Manjaro and youâve kept your system updated, then youâre already on the latest release.
If youâre not up to date yet⌠
sudo pacman-mirrors -f && sudo pacman -Fy && sudo pacman -Syyu
The ISO is only a snapshot, so as to make it easier for people to install without needing to update packages straight away after installing.
Thanks for the help guys , sorry for the noob questions , mental health issues i find it hard sometimes to remember what i have learnt etc , cheers!
Well, the applications got updated but many things, seems to me, remains as you installed first time?
may I be wrongâŚ
There shouldnât be any difference if you kept your system updated, other than that you may have installed extra packages in the meantime. If youâve kept the system up to date and have properly merged your .pacnew files, then thereâs no point in reinstalling.
My system here was installed in April 2019, and Iâve never had to reinstall. Thatâs the whole idea behind a rolling-release distribution. 
good to know that the system will keep itself updated to any future release
hmmm, I was having a years old install and the timers was the same as first installationâŚ
When I install the 22.3.1 and the 23.0.1 the timers was changed
I usually merge the new .pacfile, and keep always updated (stable) the system
Well, it doesnât do that by itself â not out of the box anyway, because that would be a bad idea, and for so many different reasons. You have to keep the system updated yourself.
There will be an indicator in your system tray whenever there are updates, and you should also subscribe to notifications for the Stable Updates category, because with the exception of urgent security patches and bug fixes, updates are bundled together, and they always come with a dedicated announcement thread, the first post of which details the changes, and the second post of which tells you about any potential problems and how to deal with them.
This sort of thing is commonly discussed on the Stable Updates threads. All the more reason why you should keep an eye on them.
Thanks brother will be keeping an eye on stable updates and announcements on forum
cheers from UK
If Timeshift is included in the minimal ISO itâs going to be available no matter which file system you chose.
yes, right, my mistakeâŚ
The BTW edition is currently available on an air gap secured Server operating out of my motherâs basement.
Iâm sorry to inform you I blew up you motherâs basement trying to kill one rat.
