After yesterdays update I have "Warning, newer than core" messages

General system
#1

So… updated yesterday. No issues.
Today, updating I get this:

 there is nothing to do

…What’s going on here? was there a downgrade announced that I missed? Everything seems to work, so my plan is to just keep updating until these packages “catch up” again. Unless someone can give me a good reason not to.

#2

Have you tried sudo pacman -Syyu?

#3

Sounds like a mirror problem, probably temporary.
I’d try @Bryanpwo’s suggestion.
If that doesn’t help, try reflector-simple to fix mirrors.

#4

Or in TTY3
sudo pacman -Syy
sudo pacman -Syu
systemctl reboot

#5

Did that before submitting this. I’ll just let it ride, everything works.

Edit: No complaints today; Servers must have caught up with themselves…

#6

I have an alias that automatically changes the mirror list to the 10 most recent updated mirrors in Sweden and / or Germany.

#7

Today I had some issues getting updates from github. Issues were temporary, and now all seems to work again.
