Need to use update pamac command twice because waiting for another package manager

The second time I enter sudo pamac update it works.

Can you really trust yourself? pamac and pacman words kinda merge in my brain and easily get swapped around.

However, to get a warning you could do this:

/usr/local/bin/pamac

pamac

#!/bin/bash


if [[ $(ps -o comm= $PPID) == "sudo" ]]; then
    echo "Warning: Do not use 'pamac' with 'root' privileges. It can cause permission issues."
    read -p "Are you sure you want to continue? (y/n): " choice
    if [[ $choice != "y" ]]; then
        echo "Exiting..."
        exit 1
    else
        echo "Continuing..."
    fi
fi

/usr/bin/pamac "$@"

Create that file, and don’t forget to chmod +x
