Oh, that makes more sense. I thought you were trying to say, “Nah, if you merged makepkg.conf.pacnew, which has this line that I’m showing you, it’ll use more than 3 threads, so good luck thinking that’ll work!”. Now I get you. Thanks for explaining.

Having this issue with GNOME 40 after the update.
GDM no longer starts on it’s own. I need to press ctrl+alt+F2 to get to the terminal and then I can immediately switch back (w/o logging on the text login) and GDM will start normally. I was able to log in. This problem happens now on every boot of this install.
This is the first time in years I installed GNOME; used Manjaro from the iso. Today’s update was my first (large) update with it. Did not have this issue before. Basically I am saying this a fresh new GNOME 40 install + I am not familiar with new GNOME.

I had to set KMS to start early to fix it for me.
A post was merged into an existing topic: [ARM Stable Update] 2021-04-27 - Firefox, KDE Frameworks, RPI Imager, Uboots and Kernels
Why is (Kernel Mode Setting?) it not working now?
It worked fine before the update.
I always run sudo update-grub before startup to check if kernels are still there.
With this update the kernels where gone in grub. Manjaro settings was also gone from the app menu.
After reinstalling manjaro settings, I installed a non used kernel and that showed up after sudo update-grub.
After reboot I reinstalled the last LTS kernel, that was being used before reboot.
Thanks Manjaro team!
Has anybody experienced issues with cheese after the update? Video flickers just like if the app was working on a persistent burst mode or something …
Unfortunately, I’m not able to reproduce the issue anymore since I decided to roll back to my previous snapshot. There should be many journal entries related to cheese with a gstreamer error, if somebody is willing to reproduce it.
EDIT:
Just decided to step up and try the update again. 
This is what I get so far whenever I run cheese:
(cheese:1901): cheese-WARNING **: 13:16:10.322: Internal GStreamer error: code not implemented. Please file a bug at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/issues/new.: ../gst-plugins-base/gst-libs/gst/video/gstvideofilter.c(296): gst_video_filter_transform (): /GstCameraBin:camerabin/GstViewfinderBin:vf-bin/GstVideoConvert:vfbin-csp:

Same thing happens if I switch to kernel 5.10.32.
If I test with another webcam enabled app such as Skype, the video output works fine.
Any ideas on how to proceed with this?
I know this issue is not a big deal but IMO, you don’t expect minor things like that to happen in a Stable Release.
EDIT 2:
Issue Resolved.
Downgraded pipewire and pipewire-media-session to version 0.3.25-1
With this last update I noticed an improvements in ram usage at start on Manjaro XFCE. Before I had 700/800 mb of ram used and now around 500mb. Nice. 
No issues with cheese on my side
The firmware seems to be missing in the kernel tree: Kernel 5.11 warning about qat_4xxx firmware / Kernel & Hardware / Arch Linux Forums for more info. It’s the same for kernel 5.12. But it seems not to be a problem.
The update went smooth, except for one small, but very annoying issue – KDE PIM stopped working.
KMail spins up, but it won’t sync or send mail anymore, claiming IMAP and MailDir are broken.
Similarly, KOrganizer, Zanshin and KAddressBook all “work in general”, but their resources are offline.
I just checked Akonadi Console and all resources (even local ones) have:
- status: Offline, Broken
- status message: Unable to start.
I tried to restart Akonadi, even rebooted, but the problem persists.
Wait until Manjaro-Team Fix it. On a vanilla Arch Kernel you get some more firmware warnings.
Smooth update, the only thing I’ve noticed is that when clicking on Show Applications (GNOME) the number of columns of the application grid changed from 6 to 7. This was an issue because the first row was below my application dock (in the left side of the screen).
This might be in preparation for GNOME40, however I don’t want it, and the fix in this case is installing App Grid Tweaks (GNOME extension) and changing the amount of rows and columns manually.
Update ran on my Raspberry Pi 4 but now X only runs for about 30 seconds then my monitor looses the signal and goes to sleep. Both xfce and i3 experience the same problem. If I’m quick I can login but makes no difference. Now stuck using tty console only.
Some issues to report from me:
- There’s still an issue with resume from suspend and amdgpu at least on some Renoir (Ryzen 4xxx) systems, leading to the system hanging up when resuming from suspend. It works on 5.11.6 and it seems to work again on 5.10.32 (5.10 was affected for some subversions, too), but neither 5.11.16 nor 5.12.0 work, so I went back to 5.11.6 again.
See my topic about this:
- After installing kernel 5.10.32, I checked whether it worked and it did. I then installed 5.12. When I rebooted into 5.11.6, I got an error message (“Failed to load Kernel modules…” or similar) and was thrown into fallback mode. I then installed 5.11.16 (which has the suspend bug) and rebooted into 5.10.32 after checking 5.11.16 - now 5.10.32 gave the same warning.
Currently I’m on 5.11.6 again after downgrading.
try installing gdm-git instead from the AUR
Hi there!
Ran into a problem of black screen at boot (after plymouth screen).
I’m using KDE and sddm seems to have a little bug now that it doesn’t open in the right tty, so some users might be able to switch tty (most like to the second with Ctrl+Alt+F2) to go into graphical interface.
For my part, I couldn’t switch ttys. It simply stayed a black screen.
Disabling sddm-plymouth and enabling sddm didn’t help, but when I downgraded sddm to one version back, it finally booted for me (as the new bug has been introduced in the now-upstream version).
I did this with chrooting into my installation and execute these commands inside my manjaro-chroot:
su
wget https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/s/sddm/sddm-0.19.0-4-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
pacman -U sddm-0.19.0-4-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
rm sddm-0.19.0-4-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
Then exiting chroot and rebooting into my installed system. Worked fine then. I currently have work to do, so I can’t further investigate this issue (whether it really solved it or it was just a lucky boot). I might investigate more these days.
I hope I could help another user with the same problem.
This was the site which gave me the idea to downgrade this package: bugs . archlinux.org /task/70528
I had to install Kernel 5.12 from the Terminal. The Manjaro Settings Manager will not install 5.12.
