[Stable Update] 2021-06-07 - Kernels, Perl, Haskell, Tesseract, Cutefish, KDE, Nvidia

[salome]

Smooth update on my Acer MM15 & on my Desktop

Cutefish seems cool… but I think it’s more oriented to be used on a tablet.
I’ll give it a try!

[deemon]

Dunno. I have also

What’s with the new horribad Firefox? Why does it exist? Is this really “stable” or some horribly wrong gone alpha that accidentally got released to stable upstream?

edit:
As a quick partial fix go to about:config and set browser.proton.enabled to false but this setting will be removed soon.

Where can I get a current ISO? I have to do a fresh install on another machine tomorrow and it would be good to have the new 21.06 already.

[Hanzel]

links to ISO’s are in the first post

[philm]

First post has the links. Just published.

[anon55802073]

Sorry, did not pay attention to these links because it said developer images.

Hi, Thunderbird seems not to be in the good version, I had 78.11 and now the version is 78.10 in repositories.

[Theodor]

Yes, I also did not have DKMS compiled 340 nvidia driver for kernel 5.4. Rolled back the update using Timeshift

[mmberlin]

pandoc markdown conversion does not work with .svg files after update. Had to replace them with .png.

@aimixess

I had 78.11 and now the version is 78.10 in repositories.

Reuploaded our overlay of Thunderbird …

[Roon]

Thanks for update, it works well without any issue

I’m getting the same dependency errors, but no prompt that allows me to skip packages. pacman -Syu simply errors out…

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)

…and same with pamac upgrade .

Same here, got:

Hi

I have the same issue on the 5.4.123-1 and 5.10-41-1.

I saw the log. The error was about gcc mismatch (kernel 5.4 and 5.10 were compiled with 10.2 gcc and I had 11.1), so I tried to resolve by adding
export IGNORE_CC_MISMATCH=1 to /etc/profile and rebuilt, but that didn’t help.
Dkms reported that it was successfully built, but the driver wasn’t in the kernel.

The error changed from 10 to 2 what ever that means.

$ vim 5.10.41-1-MANJARO/x86_64/log/make.log
DKMS make.log for nvidia-340.108 for kernel 5.10.41-1-MANJARO (x86_64)

NVIDIA: calling KBUILD...

echo >&2 "  ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid.";		\
echo >&2 "         include/generated/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing.";\
echo >&2 "         Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it.";	\
echo >&2 ;							\

This is the short version, the file is 15771 lines long! This error was initially in the log but with the mismatch it was echo >&10; only difference.

IMPORTANT

DO NOT reeboot your pc/laptop you will end up with black screen.

Currently I am on a kernel 5.10.41-1 fallback initramfs.

Can someone advise how to proceed ?? I can open separate thread if you like.

Hi,
After update I cannot access a terminal or anything that runs in a terminal. My setup is posted with my profile here so should be accessible here. Can’t post other info. No terminal!

I’m on i3wm, no NVIDIA involved, I don’t have one.

Reading the posts here it may be a locale problem but I can’t use terminal to have a look.

Any Suggestions ?

Thanks.

Here’s a link that explains how to fix situations like this:

[Fix] Can’t login - black screen & chroot guide

Original author on old forum @AlManja If you are stuck and you can’t log into your system, use one of these steps below. They are sorted from easiest at the top. Start with the first step and if it doesn’t work, try with the next one and so on… Once you get access to the system, then proceed with updating the system or installing/removing packages, checking log files… Steps (you only need one) are: 1 - log to tty terminal 2 - boot without X 3 - chroot auto (with manjaro-chroot) 4 - chroot …

If it’s indeed a locale-related issue the link above will guide you how to access your system and then you can edit your /etc/locale.gen and uncomment the locales you need - look for en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 as the default locale as well.

[djaywhite]

Thanks @anon88624618 . I’ll go and have a look see.

Update does not work here.
I get dependency errors:

Any hints how to resolve?

[DerMateng]

same here. But I get no prompt that would allow to skip thoase updates, so update fails with
