I guess i have some questions regarding packagekit changes.
Since Manjaro ships it’s own version, gnome-software
is unable to make any system package updates as it doesn’t seem to be noticing that there are updates. Furthermore basically every mirror sync on unstable followed by pacman -Syyuu
or similar pamac update
with enabled downgrade, wants to downgrade just updated packages . Is somebody else experiencing this or is aware that there is a problem?
For example, just updated package was:
[2021-09-17T09:50:03+0200] [ALPM] upgraded pacman (6.0.1-1 -> 6.0.1-2)
now running pamac update -a
- it wants to downgrade again…
Warning: pacman: downgrading from version 6.0.1-2 to version 6.0.1-1
It’s like there is either only one up to date mirror and by refreshing the mirrors i always get the outdated one or something i didn’t think of yet. However that does not explain why gnome-software is now unable to see packagekit
updates.

@pux , I have no such issue.
Does the
sudo pacman-mirrors -B unstable -c Germany -P https -a
sudo pacman -Syyu
sudo pamac update --force-refresh
operations are not solving the issue of to get rid of pacman
downgrade suggestion?

Well it is a recurring issue since a few weeks or so, but maybe your suggestion to use https mirrors will solve it, I give it a try thanks!
I do normally use sudo pacman-mirrors -g -f 3
, which always worked fine since years until recently it seems.
It’s not possible to update timeshift as usual.:
Error: The operation could not be performed (Conflicting files)
timeshift: /usr/lib/system/system/grub-btrfs.path exists in the file system (belongs to grub-btrfs)
Errors occurred, no packages were updated.
@Yochanan
What do you mean, “as usual?”
I reverted the change and replaced 20.11.1+28+gefed117-2. with 20.11.1+28+gefed117-1 again.

It seems that i found the issue with my mirror list, which is like i thought.
Output of:
sudo pacman-mirrors --country Germany --api --set-branch unstable
0.084 Germany : https://manjaro.re/
only one mirror was found and, this one is not up to date even if the the status says otherwise.
So, because i updated my packages seconds before on a up to date mirror, by changing to manjaro.re
it want to downgrade my packages.
Output of:
sudo pacman-mirrors --geoip
0.131 Germany : https://manjaro.re/
Output of:
sudo pacman-mirrors -g -f 3
0.079 Germany : https://manjaro.re/
@philm this mirror is somehow out of date even if it says otherwise.
Using 0.594 Global : https://mirrors.manjaro.org/repo/
seems to work fine.
Looking at Index of /unstable/
state 19-Sep-2021 21:51 276
which is one day behind.
yes ! very strange mirror
unstable is ok for manjaro and pacman, 16 update in community today

Prev. family (at least linux514
) was fixed earlier: Xhci_pci Warning while building initramfs
ADDED:
The same warning for the rc2:
Package (1) Old Version New Version Net Change Download Size
core/linux515 5.15.rc1.210918.g6880fa6-1 5.15.rc2.210920.ge4e737b-1 -0.01 MiB 97.35 MiB
The patch needs to be updated for 5.15 but hey it’s just a warning

May be it is warning only cause “possibly missing” and if it could be determined as “missing” for sure, than it probably would be from an error category.
Also generally warnings are usually prevents further errors. Warnings need to be fixed to prevent future errors. That’s the general purpose of warnings and should not just ignore all warnings.

Yes, but I think something was changed on the 5.15 kernel so it doesn’t apply to that?
committed 07:12AM - 02 Jul 21 UTC
Commit a66d21d7dba8 ("usb: xhci: Add support for Renesas controller with
memory"… ) added renesas_usb_fw.mem firmware reference to xhci-pci. Thus
modinfo indicates xhci-pci.ko has "firmware: renesas_usb_fw.mem". But
the firmware is only actually used with CONFIG_USB_XHCI_PCI_RENESAS. An
unusable firmware reference can trigger safety checkers which look for
drivers with unmet firmware dependencies.
Avoid referring to renesas_usb_fw.mem in circumstances when it cannot be
loaded (when CONFIG_USB_XHCI_PCI_RENESAS isn't set).
Fixes: a66d21d7dba8 ("usb: xhci: Add support for Renesas controller with memory")
