Despite the announcement, my system does not show the update.prompt; I tried:
$ sudo pacman-mirrors --country Germany --api --protocol https
$ sudo pacman-mirrors -f 5
but either way
$ pamac checkupdates
says: System is actual.
What should I do?
You probably have an outdated mirror.
Here you can see which mirrors are up-to-date.
Try
sudo pacman-mirrors --fasttrack
sudo pacman-mirrors --country Germany
should be good enough
sudo pacman -Syu
to update - you get to see the list of what is about to be done
I don’t use the update-checker.
Perhaps have it check again - initiate a check yourself?
Thynk you,
did this, but same result “System is actual”. my mirror-list is actually:
Server = https://ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de/manjaro/stable/$repo/$arch
Server = https://mirror.netcologne.de/manjaro/stable/$repo/$arch
Server = https://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/manjaro/stable/$repo/$arch
Server = https://mirror.23m.com/manjaro/stable/$repo/$arch
Server = https://mirror.alpix.eu/manjaro/stable/$repo/$arch
Server = https://manjaro.kurdy.org/stable/$repo/$arch
Thank you:
This solved the issue, 349 packages are listed for update. After that
$ pamac checkupdates
shows the same and the update.prompt is shown.
May be a problem with pamac?
If you then did the update and the update-checker still shows updates pending - perhaps they are AUR packages?
Otherwise its a “cosmetic” problem I have seen multiple people complain about.
I have no solution - as I said: I don’t use it and have it deactivated.
I check for updates myself - and I just did them on all of my VM’s.
I also do not usually use pamac or pamac-manager.
I had a similar observation: pamac checkupdates does not refresh databases properly
I recommend installing pacman-contrib and use checkupdates.
