Totally broken system after December 2025 Stable Update

After that I mounted and chrooted again, but the errors are the same

I expected that much

First exit the chroot but keep the mount

Also mount your efi partition - I see there is one

mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi

I would check if the package lists in the /mnt is intact - then sanitize them and use them to a complete rebuild of the filesystem.

Using these as command templates

Optional: basic Manjaro root filesystem

The command takes the content of the /root-pkgs.txt file, filtering the package names and feed the list to pacman

pacman -Syy --noconfirm --needed --root /mnt $(cat /rootfs-pkgs.txt | awk '{print $1;}')

Optional: Live ISO desktop

The command takes the content of the /desktop-pkgs.txt file, filtering the package names and feed the list to pacman

pacman -Syy --noconfirm --needed --root /mnt $(cat /desktopfs-pkgs.txt | awk '{print $1;}')

If the original files are intact (/mnt/rootfs-pkgs.txt & /mnt/desktopfs-pkgs.txt)

pacman -Syy --needed --root /mnt $(cat /mnt/rootfs-pkgs.txt | awk '{print $1;}')

pacman -Syy --needed --root /mnt $(cat /mnt/desktopfs-pkgs.txt | awk '{print $1;}')
