Error while upgrading after some months

 -> error installing repo packages

Updated my laptop after some months of inactivity, this happened. I can send the full update log if needed.

be aware of the grub thingy… and do a sudo grub-install --no-nvram before you reboot (if you are using grub and do not change much on it)

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vala-panel-appmenu-xfce-git

go remove this before update should fix your issue…

sudo pacman -Rc vala-panel-appmenu-xfce-git

if needed you can reinstall after the update is done… but seems it conflicts with vala-panel-appmenu-common-git too so may remove both … and reinstall later there are some changes in both AUR builds …

Worked, thanks.

Should I be worried:
