Qt6-base: local is newer than extra

After today’s upgrade, everything seems fine, only after I do a repository check do I get the message below.

Should I worry about this?

“Worry” is too strong a word - if you don’t see problems, this can be left as is.
Your local package is slightly newer than the currently offered one.
If you’re unsure, you might “doowngrade” that package to exactly match the current version on stable.

I don’t think so. Did you change branches recently?

No, that’s why it seemed strange to me.
I solved it with the following commands:

sudo pacman-mirrors --api --protocol https --fasttrack 15
sudo pacman -Syuu
sudo pacman -Syu

The first command was to be sure and for my peace of mind (the mirrors were ok and before that).

With my Notebook on Testing Branch I
Had the same topic today and solved it by downgrading as well.

Seems for me that on the mirrors the Package was downgraded as only in unstable the newer Version was available

Just FYI;
There is no reason to do these 2 together.
They are the same command except uu allows downgrades.
So, with X is newer than.. it was the right way to sync with current branch package version, just no need to do the second one.

sudo pacman -Syuu
