[Stable Update] 2020-08-28 - Kernels, Systemd, PAM, PAMBASE, KDE-git, Deepin, Pamac, Nvidia 450.66, LibreOffice 7.0

No issues. Kernel 5.8, Cinnamon DE, AMD video.

A small issue:
had to reboot the computer via console.

I’m still not able to pull the update. maybe something wrong with my mirrors, but usually it takes only a few minutes.

edit: Never mind. Checked the mirror list, apparently some I use are no longer reachable, which is strange because I selected them only about 2 weeks ago. A never mind, updating now, looking forward to it!

no issues here, didnt need to intervene with pom or pombase

Same issue as some people here : dunstify error message. I removed dunstify and dunst. Upgrade. And then reinstall dunst. All is ok now.

A post was split to a new topic: Rtl8821ce: Bad return status for module build on kernel: 5.8.3-2

(92/92) Prüfe auf Dateikonflikte [########################] 100%
Fehler: Konnte den Vorgang nicht durchführen (In Konflikt stehende Dateien)
dunst: /usr/bin/dunstify existiert im Dateisystem (gehört zu dunstify)
Fehler sind aufgetreten, keine Pakete wurden aktualisiert.

Next time when posting CLI output, add export LANG=C before you run a command.
From that point onwards until you close the terminal, its output will be in English.

Kein Problem: Ich verstehe Deutsch…

And here is your solution (someone already mentioned this above):

Hi, in my particular issue, the affected files were:

/etc/pam.d/system-login
/etc/pam.d/system-login.pacnew

The last one contains the same that the first, but without lines with pam_tally and pam_tally2

Use the pacnew version was enough to login again on reboot

Thanks in advance!

Same here, update went ok, nothing about pom or pombase.
Rebooted and logged in, no problem

Thanks Manjaro Team.

Is the release of the final version of Manjaro 20.1 near ?

pam not good for me before install with 2 manjaro:

$grep -E "pam_tally|pam_cracklib" /etc/pam.d/*
/etc/pam.d/lightdm-autologin:auth        required    pam_tally.so file=/var/log/faillog onerr=succeed
/etc/pam.d/passwd:#password     required        pam_cracklib.so difok=2 minlen=8 dcredit=2 ocredit=2 retry=3
/etc/pam.d/system-login:auth       required   pam_tally2.so        onerr=succeed file=/var/log/tallylog
/etc/pam.d/system-login:account    required   pam_tally2.so 
grep -E "pam_tally|pam_cracklib" /etc/pam.d/*
/etc/pam.d/passwd:#password     required        pam_cracklib.so difok=2 minlen=8 dcredit=2 ocredit=2 retry=3
/etc/pam.d/sddm-autologin:auth        required    pam_tally.so file=/var/log/faillog onerr=succeed
/etc/pam.d/system-login:auth       required   pam_tally2.so        onerr=succeed file=/var/log/tallylog
/etc/pam.d/system-login:account    required   pam_tally2.so 

now all commented before update, I can run

and after merge .pacnew if exists / replace pam_tally2.so by pam_faillock.so

EDIT: no merge /etc/shadow or /etc/passwd !!! manjaro is break

I had the same issue with dunst (/usr/bin/dunstify) and I’ve overwritten it like @chomsky suggested:

sudo pacman -Syu --overwrite /usr/bin/dunstify

Everything else was updated without issues :slight_smile:

Thank you :slight_smile:

I used to have problems with mirrors just about every time I updated. Now I run sudo pacman-mirrors --fasttrack before updating. No problems since. :fireworks:

Smooth update, just had to do the mirrors thing with pacman before because it wasn’t showing with -Syyu. No big deal. Thanks Manjaro Team :smile:

Ditto what astinus said.

All good, but lua was orphaned. Removing it

[2020-08-28T07:25:52-0400] [PACMAN] Running 'pacman -Rsn lua'

caused no issues for me.

Upgrading with the GUI give a lot of failures, so proceeded with the terminal. After successful upgrade I updated grub and no kernels were listed. I reinstalled kernels and grub update showed installed kernels. Hopefully this will work, I will reboot when I finished my work :crossed_fingers: .

Thanks @Manjaro team

Some days ago i builded a custom kernel, 5.8.4-7, from tkg-git. With the latest update i noticed Manjaro dowloaded 5.8.3 from official repo by itself. Why it does that?

Because you had Manjaro’s kernel installed before. Remove all.
