Unstable might not be syncing to Arch correctly

Plasma 6.3.4 landed in Arch stable 16 hours ago. It is still not in Manjaro unstable.

It seems that either

  • Unstable is not syncing to Arch
  • The Arch mirror used by Manjaro is not syncing to Arch’s Tier 1 mirror.

Either way, there is an error in the system somewhere, and I hope it gets addressed.

I remember unstable branched synced quite often - but lately I have heard several times Philip saying

Stop chasing Arch

That likely means the sync is manually initiated when … ?

That is all I know :grimacing:

It is now. :wink:

FYI, syncing with Arch is done manually. There is no problem.

So how is the edge / unstable separation coming along?
@romangg talked about it last year but either I’ve missed news on that front or it’s indeed been quiet.

OK, I just got Plasma 6.3.4 installed. I wanted this update because it fixes the bug that caused notification text to be covered by the icon.

I was under the assumption that Manjaro unstable synced with Arch stable automatically.

I have been there too - but educating myself on build order taught me - it is not that simple.

At times it has to be manual - especially if important libraries has been updated - then packages need to be rebuilt in a strict order

I still don’t understand the process fully - but I believe @Yochanan has a very clear understanding.
