Add/Remove Software GUI does not load

Hi

The Add/remove Software GUI (pacman) is not working correctly.
It does not load anything in Browse/ installed categories.

Just stays like this forever after turning on laptop.

System is up to date, heres the journal after turning on:

Thank you for any help.

Try restarting the Pamac Daemon with the GUI closed:

systemctl restart pamac-daemon

Nothing happened. with that command…is ti suppose to give an output?
Now it froze when I tried to update the Worldwide mirrors…

Yes, it should prompt for your password in a dialog.

What about manually using sudo (normally isn’t necessary)?

sudo systemctl restart pamac-daemon

What’s the output of:

systemctl status pamac-daemon
[jesuslinux@T-2310 ~]$ sudo systemctl restart pamac-daemon

Yes…it just hangs with the mouse cursor spinning…

what happens if you start it from a terminal: pamac-manager

It stays the same…

[jesuslinux@T-2310 ~]$ pamac-manager
** Message: 23:03:58.821: flatpak_plugin.vala:337: refreshing flathub appstream data

The only thing that works is the “Updates” tab.
The “Browse” and the “Installed” show nothing…

** (pamac-manager:5172): WARNING **: 23:11:47.938: flatpak_plugin.vala:342: Error updating appstream2: No such ref 'appstream2/x86_64' in remote flathub; Error updating appstream: No such ref 'appstream/x86_64' in remote flathub

Try removing pamac-flatpak-plugin and see.

I disabled flatpak in the GUI anda voilá:

It appears to be working now
Thank you very much Sir.
Any reason this is happening?

Not sure, maybe @guinux knows.

Seems to be a flathub trouble
