Some vertex Maia icons have been lost. Also, fonts turned to boxes during the update. After the reboot, the writing was legible again.

My Xbox One S controller worked perfectly when connected over Bluetooth. After the last update, a number of buttons and triggers have been swapped around. When I connect the controller over USB, all buttons function normally.

No clue where to start looking for a fix…

Many of my XFCE Vertex-Maia icons are just colored circles after this update.

I had the Steam black screen issue too. I reinstalled Steam (sudo pacman -S steam-manjaro) and now it works. I am on the regular (not beta) steam-manjaro version 1.0.0.72-2 and freetype2 2.11.0-4.

For the « firefox mixes langages » bug : help → troubleshooting mode, and go in parameters → choose alternative and reinstall your language.

Doesn’t that make Firefox download the language pack instead of using the system package?

Only found this “issue”:

cantarell-fonts (0.303-1) throws errors during the plymouth-encrypt build hook while using the official manjaro plymouth theme (plymouth-theme-manjaro):

%› sudo mkinitcpio -P

The Gnome team only provides the variable font by default on this newer version and do not provide the static fonts:

gitlab.gnome. org/GNOME/cantarell-fonts/-/commit/63e8cfa5b78d06cc42d9544b43c14cbd2469a315

For now I reverted cantarell-fonts back to 0.301-1 and put it into IgnorePkg.

Pretty sure I did an update late last week - but now see another large update for 200 files coming in - what’s going on?

tried to capture the screen with the notification of 200 updates available:

Since Manjaro is a rolling release it’s not uncommon to have several updates at once.

I created an issue out of this: plymouth-encrypt thows error due to cantarell-fonts changes (#1) · Issues · plymouth-themes / plymouth-manjaro · GitLab, however, does a rerun of mkinitcpio might fix it with 0.303-1 version due to a timing problem as the fonts cache was not updated yet when mkinitcpio was called?
