Official repositories appear empty after last Pacman-manager update

Hi mates, yesterday there was an important update, pacman-manager aspect changed, but the most important, now all the official repositories appear empty, I tried several times to refresh them, also to change the country, but ir fails and will always stay in the World repository. It shows AUR, Snap and Flatpac repositories, but it fails to build files from AUR. I wanted to reinstall Clementine, as it stopped working after the update, but the last version from AUR always fail to instal.
I hope someone can help, as now there’s no way to update or install anything from the official reps…
Thanx!!

The content of community repo has been moved to extra.

Currently there is issues with Pamac - the team is trying to work out the kinks.

The first entries are not up-to-date.

In the meantime use pacman and an up-to-date mirror

sudo pacman-mirrors -c Global && sudo pacman -Syyu

If you need to build from AUR - you mention clementine - use yay

yay clementine

As I said, there’s another issue: I try to change from Global to any other country, but it always stay in Global one, the change is not kept.
And as I said, the mirrors appear empty after rebooting after the last update. Never happend before, so I’m pretty lost…

Hello,

I suggest to not use the pamac UI (regardless that is the gtk3 or gtk4 one). Do this from Terminal:
sudo rm -rf /var/tmp/pamac
Then run:
pamac update

Using pacman for sure will work, but not with your AUR packages.

I did it, anyway, mirrors are still empty (core, extra…) in pacman UI, nothing to do there that is not from Snap, AUR or Flatpak. I’m using Global all the time (which appears as up-to-date), as I say it doesn’t let me even change to another mirror.

I did it, in pacman UI mirrors still appear empty. I’d prefer to install Clementine from the official repo, as I always did, but as official repo appears empty and AUR fails to build…

You mean Pamac Ui (that is broken at the moment), pacman does not have a Ui.

No such package in our repositories. Also see this:

No you didn’t - you used Pamac

  • pacman → native Arch package manager
  • pamac → Manjaro package manager

Open a terminal and execute given commands

It’s the same problem with Strawberry, I did everything all of you said here, and the official mirrors still appear empty. I searched for Strawberry -and for Firefox- and it only shows me the AUR version, nothing from official mirrors:

I did everything you said, but as you can see in the previos message no file from official repos appears there… Mayby I’m doing something wrong, but I did every step all of you told me here, and no result, I can find or install nothing from official repos…

Usually sudo should not be used with pamac as it has a polkit and will ask for password when is needed.
On my end:

strawberry                                                                       1.0.18-2                extra 
    A music player aimed at audio enthusiasts and music collectors

You might also have missed this:

So, if you still have community there, could be the issue you have.
Then, we start again:

Then
sudo pacman -Syyu strawberry
or
pamac install strawberry
And let me know what error you get.

Yeeees!!! It did it!!

Thank you very much, all of you. Now all packages appear in Extra, the UI is working fine again and I installed strawberry :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
