Pacman --sync --refresh --refresh --sysupgrade repo package errors

I’ve only been running Manjaro seriously on a VM. I’m hoping to install it as my main distro with XFCE soon.

  1. For this specific question, I should have put the -u in the text above, and that is what I was using consistently.

  2. If I can provide additional info, just let me know. I included the timestamp in the upper right, “2020-11-25 02:03”, and all but one repo had an “x” in the Stable column, but I didn’t see a corresponding Announcement.

  3. Will do, but I’d like to try to fix it myself so I understand all the parts.

Well okay… I just tried it and it completed successfully. Isn’t that the way it goes :slight_smile: I wanted to prove I could get a successful, repeatable, install. So when I got the error, I restored the machine and tried again, hours or days later.

From a lot of reading, I am leaning towards the problem in the cache located at /var/cache/pacman/pkg/. So when I was doing the -Syyu the downloaded files were seen as corrupt in some fashion. I was hoping to pinpoint it, so if I have the issue in the future in production I could fix it quickly and painlessly :slight_smile:
