[Stable Update] 2026-06-26 - Kernels, Systemd, PipeWire, NVIDIA, KDE, LibreOffice

Cool reader would not start. I ran:

$ pamac build coolreader

–and that fixed it.

Quite often AUR packages do indeed need to be rebuilt after doing the system upgrade. :wink:

Thanks.

But here are some facts:

  • Hitherto I made a rule of never installing from anything but Manjaro’s own repository and never consciously broke that rule.
  • This was the first time I ever used pamac.

Can it be: Coolreader was in the Manjaro repo when I installed it on 2024-02-27 (my records) > it was subsequently removed from that repo > it broke today finally > and I got an AUR version today?

This may well be the case re. it being relegated to the AUR at some point. This does happen sometimes. :wink:

coolreader was added to the AUR 3 months ago (2026-04-06), so it can be assumed that it was removed from Arch’s official repos around that time:

ventoy 1.1.14 cannot boot if Secure Boot is disabled. :backhand_index_pointing_down:

The problem appears to have been remedied in 1.1.16, which is already in Testing, but considering how much time elapses between Stable Updates these days, it might be a good idea to push 1.1.16 out sooner, lest it might leave people without a bootable rescue USB. :thinking:
