Bad time to update?

not yet. I was doing something last night, so I wasn’t able to update my system. I’m planning to do it right now.

I get this warning as well !!
$ sudo pacman-mirrors -f 5 && sudo pacman -Syyu
Warning: manjaro-hello: Local Version (0.7.0-6) is newer than extra (0.7.0-5)

Edit: I always updated the system as soon updates came out.

so from this link ( in stable )
https://gitlab.manjaro.org/-/snippets/881/raw

you should have number version from right
exemple on zstd 1.5.5-1 or you will get 1.5.4-1 from your screen side

it is like you are still using manjaro-mirrors ( from december 22 ), not pamac-mirrors or pacman-mirrors
better is wait return on this point before any action

Does it mean that the update was actually downgrading that package?

And I have a solution. Run your updates :wink:

What should I do? If it is something that can be fixed, or just some mirrors need to be corrected, I’m willing to learn what to do.

can you return

Would be nice and helpful as well to mention the reason about that manjaro-hello version story!

have you go in testing and then try to go back in stable ?
no need to rush , just wait return confirm for mirrors update

That’s the latest commit.

You are using pacman and opting to not pass the downgrade flag.

sudo pacman -Syuu

The extra u allows for downgrading to match the mirror.

[Note for some: pacman and pamac are not the same.]

Does it mean I do have to downgrade by

???
Did the newer manjaro-hello version came by the pamac command? which I did use some days ago for an AUR package update.

if you type pacman -Syu or -Syyu , you have an upgrade
if you type pacman -Syuu you get a downgrade
if you type pacman -Syyuu you get a full synchronize with mirrors ( including revert )

Isn’t the right side the installed version, and the left the version the mirrors are offering? Otherwise there would be no downgrade warning for manjaro-hello. See the bottom of the list in the opening post.

You dont have to if you dont notice any problems.
But if you want to be in-lign with the mirrors … add an extra u.

Notice the second section under -u in the manual page for pacman…

man pacman

...
-u, --sysupgrade
           Upgrades all packages that are out-of-date. Each
           currently-installed package will be examined and upgraded if a
           newer package exists. A report of all packages to upgrade will be
           presented, and the operation will not proceed without user
           confirmation. Dependencies are automatically resolved at this level
           and will be installed/upgraded if necessary.

           Pass this option twice to enable package downgrades; in this case,
           pacman will select sync packages whose versions do not match with
           the local versions. This can be useful when the user switches from
           a testing repository to a stable one.

Thank you,
but I still do not understand by which action my manjaro-hello version (0.7.0-6) came from.
I never switched branches, always on stable.

It was pushed to stable, but reverted. Not your fault.

OK, now I got it.
So everyone has to downgrade it.
Thank you.
