I’ve updated the list of mirrors via the Welcome. However, I’m getting these errors in trying to do an eos-update. Pls help.

Press ENTER to close this window:
first you need to edit your pacman.conf file and remove Community repos
There are some upcoming changes to the Arch repos that everyone should be aware of.
What is happening
Full details are in the link below but the most important note to be aware of is:
The [testing] repository will be split into [core-testing] and [extra-testing], the [staging] repository will be split into [core-staging] and [extra-staging]. The [community] repository will be merged into [extra] and will therefore be empty after the migration.
https://archlinux.org/news/git-migration-announ…
then update your mirrors
eos-rankmirrors (or use the welcome app)

sudo nano /etc/pacman.conf
Enter password, find the lines that have Community and add # to the start of the line.
Ctrl+O to write then Ctrl+X to exit.
Run sudo pacman -Syu and all should be good.

If your /etc/pacman.conf has a pair of lines
[community]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
then simply remove those two lines.

I commented out community then updated mirrors than updated packages, and now I get : “no servers configured for repository”
Terminal:
cat /etc/pacman.conf | grep -n2 'community'
86-Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
87-
88:#[community-testing]
89-#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
