[Unstable Update] 2023-05-21 - Repository changes

You may want to switch to testing branch, downgrade some packages and let me know.

Same happens on testing branch

15 posts were split to a new topic: Failed to sync AUR database

Getting steam crashing on start since todays updates. steam-runtime --reset didnt resolve it.
Logs here: https://controlc.com/69e25960

Same results on 6.4 and 6.3.

I am using Dracut and upgraded Kernel 6.4 but boot failed due to amdgpu in wrong time order at startup:

How to fix this issue here:

I realized this post is better placed over there, so there it goes.

This current pamac mess breaks updating.

Since libpamac==11.5.5+1+g4dbc56a-1, it asks me via the polkit window for the password rather than the terminal.

Also:

$ pamac update --force-refresh

I’m sorry for the German output, I’ve set LANGUAGE=C and LANG=C but it doesn’t take for all messages. I think it’s understandable enough, right?

The package v86d is from the repository but it wants to install the AUR version. It doesn’t matter which key I press, the response is always “Transaction cancelled”.

Neither pacman nor paru see any update.

Try downgrading to libpamac (11.5.4-2)

I think we have been seeing some examples of people who previous used sudo pamac having root permissions on directories that should not.
Maybe a solution is to remove them and run pamac upgrade --force-refresh again.

Which directories are these? I’ve removed /var/tmp/pamac to start from scratch.

A pamac checkupdates --refresh-tmp-files-dbs tells me that the system is up-to-date except a few AUR packages that I know are marked out-of-date but didn’t receive an update yet.

$ LANGUAGE=C pamac checkupdates --refresh-tmp-files-dbs
Your system is up to date.

Out of Date:
bazelisk-bin            1.15.0-1       AUR
jdownloader2            latest-17      AUR
splatmoji-git           r92.b8d14b4-1  AUR

And it downloads the databases (but not AUR?)

$ tree /var/tmp/pamac
.
└── dbs
    ├── local -> /var/lib/pacman/local
    └── sync
        ├── core.db
        └── extra.db

4 directories, 2 files

(How does it know that the AUR packages are out-of-date if it didn’t download the AUR database?)

Then,

Here, you see that it removes the repo databases but downloads the files dbs as well as the aur database but it told above that it couldn’t copy it.

However, the pamac database is not the actual database:

$ file pamac_aur.db
pamac_aur.db: POSIX tar archive
$ tar tf pamac_aur.db
v86d-0.1.10-12/
v86d-0.1.10-12/desc

This is massively confusing.

Also, after one force refresh, the next update commands don’t want the password via the terminal as before but from the window as it always did a few months ago.

I think the new “libpamac” file has some serious errors in it. Good luck trying to downgrade it.

Once again do not use pamac to do your actual updates. From experience I’ve seen pamac have issues updating or just installing something and dropping to terminal to do the updates or install there is no issue.

There’s no dancing around it: to break the distros updating tool (across all branches by the looks of it) is a monumental ■■■■■■■

Sadly this is my experience as well. I’ve never in good consience been able to recommend pamac and am not using it myself in all those years I daily drive Manjaro on my machines.
Just all be glad there is pacman and that one works.

Even with today’s update of “libpamac” “pamac-gtk3” and “pamac-cli” are still both broken.

Which update do you mean? libpamac is at 11.5.6-1 and it seems like it’s working.

yes I know but the AUR part seems to be still broken?

My mistake it now works!

Not anymore, I’ve just build a package.

I have not run pamac since 3 days ago, ONLY pacman -Syu

This is what I get:

AUR is disabled to be updated with pamac, I explicitly build each AUR package I get notified needs updating.
My community repository does not seem to be removed (I did the pacdiff thing yesterday)

Remove the folder /var/tmp/pamac and try again.

YEY, great success!

pamac upgrade                                                                                                                                                                                        ✔

Now I just have to figure out how tf that mangohud thing even happened in the first place, and how to fix it. sudo pacman -Syuu is discouraged correct?
