[Stable Update] 2021-03-18 - Kernels, Plasma, Frameworks, LibreOffice, Firefox, Systemd

I think my upgrade is successful, but I’ve been waiting 6+ hours for an electron9 upgrade/build to complete. Not sure what I got myself into with this one…

Anyone else seeing anything similar?

electron9 is from AUR and it takes very long time to build. Unless you have like Threadripper CPU…

I cancelled my update and removed electron9. Then installed electron9-bin from AUR, that takes about minute to build. Beaware when removing electron9 that it might remove other packages as well, in my case it was dependency of balena-etcher from AUR so it was removed too. Etcher can be found also in official repos so it can be installed from there again.

Since this update yesterday, everything pulseaudio related were removed. Before that update I replaced pulseaudio (just this package, without removing dependencies) with pipewire-pulse. I removed only this package, so everything built on top of it still worked. Now, after the update the audio setting on my start menu vanished and in Settings there is no audio card left. I already tried

pamac install manjaro-pipewire
pamac install gst-plugin-pipewire

Try to delete the contents of the folder pstore. [/sys/fs/pstore/dmesg-erst]

So far everything fine on my Ideapad 5 14ARE05 (AMD 4600U) with Plasma 5.21.
Since this stable update, I can also safely use kernel 5.11 - previously (5.11.2), resume from sleep would hang the laptop, but it seems fixed now!

same here with electron9. I stopped the update and removed electron. Here Bitwarden was relying on electron and also got removed. Reloaded Bitwarden from the offical site as appimage. That works fine too …

I had similar problems with the previous update.
The problem turned out to be that PulseEffects is now dependent on pipewire-pulse, which caused that to be installed and the original pulseaudio to be removed.
I removed PulseEffects, then replaced pipewire-pulse with pulseaudio and everything is now working as before.
Obviously not a solution if you actually need PulseEffects, but otherwise I’d recommend it.

The dev replied saying “They should restard plasma or use kdeinit5 in a terminal” but kdeinit and plasmashell both give the libKF5KIOCore.so.5 undefined symbol error.

Fixed was an issue of some dependencys being versions built from git rather from the main repositories!

Try this. (being edited into solution wiki above right now)

The problem is in “known issues and solutions” of the post:

Execute:

pamac install manjaro-pipewire
pamac install gst-plugin-pipewire

OR

pamac install pulseeffects-legacy

pulseeffects-legacy does not depend on Pipewire and does not require removal of PulseAudio packages

You can either switch to pipewire-pulse installing manjaro-pipe or use pulseeffcts-legacy. There is also manjaro-pulse metapackage to switch back to pulseaudio.

I guess you’ve missed that:

Hi everyone,
I update in kernel 5.11, and I have a bug:

"Failed to commit transaction:
conflicting files:
- python-typing_extensions: /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/pycache/typing_extensions.cpython-39.pyc already exists in filesystem,

  • if this file is not needed, remove it and retry*
    - python-typing_extensions: /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/typing_extensions.py already exists in filesystem,
  • if this file is not needed, remove it and retry*"
    Please help me fix this error!
    Thanks guys so much… <3

Hmm, I have the most curious bug after this update. I don’t see the GRUB menu (just pure black nothingness), but if I click enter or wait 10 seconds Manjaro still boots. For whatever reason GRUB runs, it just doesn’t show up in the screen.

  1. Kernel 5.11 is an experimental kernel: upgrade to 5.4 LTS or 1.10 LTS (Long Time Support) and try that first.

  2. If that doesn’t help, remove the file and try again.

    sudo rm /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/typing_extensions.py

:slightly_smiling_face: All good now thanks Phil

I just tried and it works good here.
Did you try to reset configuration of pulseeffects? It has a button for that.
