Iā€™m not a fan of the new firefox 89 update. Iā€™m getting moderately worse performance on dual monitors and I normally like to watch youtube videos on 1.75x speed on one monitor and do normal items on the second and the performance hit is really noticeable compared to before. Iā€™ll change the performance settings in firefox for now manually to see if that helps but Iā€™ll be looking for an nvidia update or something soonā€¦ :neutral_face:

Itā€™s been awhile playing with firejail, but I suggest for those of you combining it with media players and setting the net none flag, go ahead and do some testing on your end to see if streaming-media files are properly ā€œfailing.ā€ I accidentally saved an html element as a ā€œvideo fileā€ and vlc+firejail choked on it to the point of needing to drop to TTY and then gracefully rebooting. For now Iā€™m sticking to the LTS kernel until we get another nvidia/mesa update.

I also cleaned up some orphans today: # pacman -Rns lib32-dconf lib32-libgudev lib32-libgusb lib32-polkit Thanks all.

Maybe it is time to try out Vivaldi ā€¦

Remove libcanberra-gstreamer & lib32-libcanberra-gstreamer first.

EDIT:

lib32-libcanberra-gstreamer and libcanberra-gstreamer are no longer in the repos

Yep, Iā€™m getting the same thing:

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: installing pacman (6.0.0-1) breaks dependency ā€˜pacman<5.3ā€™ required by pamac-common

Now that the new pacman got imported, I guess the new pamac with libalpm13 support is almost readyā€¦

Issue Resolved!!

How did you resolve it? Still does not work for me.

//Edit: mirror refresh worked

pamac is broken in Manjaro unstable now due to the Pacman 5 to 6 updates but well one have to live with Unstable being unstable sometimes
