Chromium Update Dilemma

General system Applications
1

Over the past week and a half, or so I haven’t been able to update Chromium. I ran reflector, but that did not solve the problem. I’m getting an unexpected end of file error. Here is the typical output:

Any help would be appreciated; thanks in advance!

You probably don’t need it anymore.

Try:

sudo pacman -R electron25

I deleted electon25 and that allowed me to update the system. So far, everything seems to be running OK, so I’m cautiously optimistic that it’s fixed.

Thanks for your help!
